OT, but if you did not tell the installer to install the
source/development part, it doesn't install the kernel source.  Look on
your CD or in the directory you downloaded files into for the RPM with
the word kernel-source in them.

The soure can be had from ftp.kernel.org, then untar it into /usr/src.
