kernel compilation...........

i've ran into further a further problem upgrading my
kernel from 2.0.36 to 2.2.2 (rh5.2)

i have used as many rpm packages as I can, but found i had
to compile the libc5 myself.

when i make 'menuconfig' for the kernel configuration
screen i get the following error.

"lxdialog error.....this usually suggests that the old
ncurses headers have not been removed."

it then refers to "/usr/include" &
"/usr/include/ncurses folders".

i have checked the last modified dates of all the files in
these folders and they are all the same. i can't find any reference to this
problem in any of the documentation i have to hand.

I have also downloaded libc.so.6.6 , libc-2.1.1.so..so but
i don't now where to put them, no readme files came with them and they weren't
gziped. several programs i would like to install state they require these
files.

You've all been very helpful so far, so i'll try not
hassle you too much!
