I see now that I have to yum-install kernel-PAE-devel ;
I assumed that yum-installing kernel-devel would find the current kernel,
but it seems that is not so.

I have akmod-tp_smapi-0.40-1.fc11.i686 installed.
It seems this is the latest Fedora version of akmod-tp_smapi .

Now when I run "sudo akmods" I get what seem to be two errors:
-------------------------------------

-------------------------------------

Surely there must be some 32-bit Fedora Thinkpad users
who are successfully running tp_smapi?
What is the secret of your success?
