How can I double check? I used

yum install kernel-devel
and
yum install/update kernel

uname -r returns
2.6.18-1.2239.fc5

and ls of /usr/src/kernels returns
# ls /usr/src/kernels/
2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-i586 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5-i586
2.6.17-1.2174_FC5-i586 2.6.18-1.2239.fc5-i586

I used the command
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9629-pkg1.run --kernel-source-path /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-1.2239.fc5-i586/

to execute the installer.

what else should I check?

[EDIT]
My install is i386, but the kernel header files is for i586, is that a problem? and can anyone tell me where I could get i386 files from then?
