I have Suse 8.2 and a Sound blaster live 5.1 cant get open source drivers installed

I can not for the life of me get the open source drivers from creatives web site to install properly i did what the readme says and it has multiple errors i will copy what is output in the konsole
this is what it outputs when i try to make
make
make -Cscripts
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ScottCummings/Unzip/Sound/scripts'

/lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB-athlon/build directory does not exist. Please edit the f ile 'config'
in this directory and set KERNEL_SOURCE to the correct location of your
kernel source.

You are currently running kernel version 2.4.20-4GB-athlon, the source code shou ld
be for this version.

make[1]: *** [get_version] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ScottCummings/Unzip/Sound/scripts'
make: *** [opts] Error 2

does anybody get this?
any help would be really nice

Is there a reason why you can't use the drivers SuSE installs by default?

The drivers that install i cant figure out how to set them up to use four speakers and i know since i read the thing for their drivers and it said that it could and does support mirroring rear speakers and i would really like to be able to use that

i figure i can deal with having 2 speakers lol because i still have windows xp so anyway thanks anyway

no i wont i dont want windows i want LINUX anyway i change my mind alot huh?

ok i fixed that problem and now this is the error that im getting please some one post a reply that will help

** if this is a custom kernel then you need to run make config in /lib/modules/2.4.20-4GB-athlon/build.
