no where in the sticky does it say what packages are required

Oh, sorry. Try: apt-get install debhelper modutils kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot
I suppose you already have module-init-tools. Get also linux-kernel-headers if you get errors about asm.

still get errors

apt-get install gcc g++

already the newest version

Try with apt-get linux-kernel-headers

already the newest version still same errors

Hmm, which gcc version are you using? : ls -l /usr/bin/gcc* /usr/bin/cpp* /usr/bin/g++*
Try using 3.3 if 4.0 doesn't work. For example:
rm /usr/bin/gcc
ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-3.3 /usr/bin/gcc
and do the same for cpp and g++
If you don't have them do: apt-get install gcc-3.3 cpp-3.3 g++-3.3

is what i got witn i ls the dirs nething missing that could be problematic

Don't know if this will solve the problem but you have a link for g++ but not the package.
apt-get install g++-3.3

it says already the newest version should i just remove and reinstll the dev packages?

But I didn't see g++ in your output, only the symlink.
$ ls -l /usr/bin/g++*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug 10 22:05 /usr/bin/g++ -> g++-3.3
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 88828 Jun 21 01:05 /usr/bin/g++-3.3
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 93072 Aug 7 20:58 /usr/bin/g++-4.0
Try: apt-get --reinstall install g++-3.3

EDIT: Do you have make?
apt-get install make
Some more packages to apt-get: binutils coreutils libncurses5 module-init-tools

well that wasnt installed so i installed it and same error

Well, I'm getting out of ideas here. Anyone else?
Might as well see what happens with: apt-get install kernel-kbuild-2.6-3

already the newest version i think everything in my machines known universe is there i guess its bein stubborn gotta hit it with rocks
