The Berlios driver doesn't know where to find your kernel source. It
assumes the symlink /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build points to the root dir
of the kernel source. It gets created during "make modules_install" of th=
e
kernel build. Try to set the symlink to your kernel source tree manually,
but be sure that it is correctly configured (no idea how this works with
FC3 - any "config" lines during your call to rpmbuild?).
