How to link kernel sources?


Hi

I tried to install fglrx-driver for my ATI Radeon 9500 Pro. But while installing the driver needs some headers from /usr/src/linux . But I dont have this linux directory and dont know what to do. I was told to link kernel sources there, but i just dont know how to do this. Can anyone help?
