Default Re: Kernel source and Headers do not match

Which Nvidia drivers are you using? When I tried on Saturday I get an error
message about the kernel. I will have to try again today to get the exact
text of message. I have M2 and I do have the syms rpm installed since that
was my problem getting vbox to install. My headers are also 2.6.29.

Will post results of missing dependence later today.
I'm using the Nvidia 64-bit drivers from the Nvidia website. They work fine
on 11.1 and did install on 11.2 M1, but have not on M2. I have latest
updates to M2, at least as of last Friday..
