I downloded the last kernel for linux rdh 7.3. When I want to use it, I can't access gnome and have only a text mode screen. I have the following error message:

Whenever you update your kernel, you have to recompile the NVIDIA_kernel package to match the new kernel. This means that you need to have kernel sources for the new version installed.

Unless there's a precompiled RPM for the 2.4.18-17.7.x kernel, but I doubt that there is.

Either use your old Linux kernel, or install kernel-source-2.4.18-17.7.x, configure it, then get the .src.rpm or .tar.gz drivers, and install them.

Thank you!
So, if I have good anderstood, I have to log "under" my "old" kernel, instal kernel-source.2.4.18-18.7.x. Then, what do you meen by "configure it"? I am new using linux and I don't want to do any mistakes... So if you can give me the commands I have to run, I would fel reassured.
Thank you for your help.
