I don't use fedora, so this could be wrong but try it anyway.

you'll have to download the kernel-src package seperately. you will need the source package that corresponds to the kernel version you are using ("uname -r" @ the command line)

the package you need to download is called kernel-<version>.src.rpm

you should be able to get the package from redhat's servers (for example):

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.src.rpm
