How to install tp_smapi in F16?

Thanks

That package is not, and never has been, in the Fedora repositories. You will need to compile it from source code to use it in Fedora. The code seems a bit unmaintained.

I just tried building the kernel module from the source code tarball on F16 32 bit and it failed. There is no "configure", just a pre-exiting Makefile.

You can use the rpm packages from here: http://endur.fedorapeople.org/downloads/

You'll need these rpms:
akmod-tp_smapi-0.40-6.fc16.i686.rpm
tp_smapi-0.40-4.fc16.noarch.rpm

For x86_64 you'll have to build tp_smapi from source. There is a fork that builds on all Fedora systems (32bit and 64bit) without patches: https://github.com/evgeni/tp_smapi (it has version 0.41, but it doesn't really add significant fixes besides that it builds without problems on all major distributions).
