Re: error installing Display Drivers

[Abrasive <abrasive@houston.rr.com>]

I downloaded the package:  kernel-headers-2.4.18-bf2.4_2.4.18-5woody1_i386.deb
copied it over to /usr/src
ran:  dpkg -i kernel-headers-2.4.18-bf2.4_2.4.18-5woody1_i386.deb

Still no change in the problem with installing the drivers.
Did I skip a step?
Any help?
Thanks
