Red Hat 7.3 and monitor driver

I am trying to install a monitor driver in Red Hat 7.3 that worked just 
fine in 7.2 because it already had compiled code for that version.  Now 
it is trying to compile something from scratch and it is complaining 
about some files that I do not have.  Is this a problem that I can fix 
or should I complain to the driver maker (or both)?  Here is the text of 
the error file.

gcc -o linfo linfo.c
linfo.c:19:51: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/autoconf.h: No such file or 
directory
linfo.c:24:50: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h: No such file or 
directory
make: *** [linfo] Error 1
gcc -o linfo linfo.c
linfo.c:19:51: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/autoconf.h: No such file or 
directory
linfo.c:24:50: /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h: No such file or 
directory
make: *** [linfo] Error 1

The readme said something about needing a kernel source tree in 
'/usr/source/linux' and I do not have such a folder.  The only folders 
in '/usr/source/' are 'redhat/' and 'xig/' (the folder that the rpm for 
the driver made).  I would appreciate any suggestions.....
