Hi,

Fedora Core 3 is not yet officially supported since it's still in 
testing. however, no users reported problems with Fedora Core 3 so far, 
so you will probably be able to install DriverLoader with the generic 
RPM package. Before you install this package, please make sure that you 
have 'gcc' as well as the 'kernel-source' packages installed on your 
machine.

The kernel of Fedora Core 3 are probably 4K stacks kernel like in Fedora 
Core 2 so if you have a Windows XP driver which requires more than 4K of 
stacks, you will need to use a fresh 2.6.8.1 kernel from 
'http://www.kernel.org' instead. It is also possible that you will be 
able to install a 16K stacks kernel of Fedora Core 2 we offer from at :
