What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.

You probably do not have the kernel-devel package that matches your *running* kernel. Do a:

uname -r

and see if you have the kernel-devel with the same version. If your kernel is not the standard one, for example the PAE kernel, it will be kernel-PAE-devel and so on.
