I'm trying to install a driver on my system and one of the requirement is to have my kernel source code included in my system. How can I verify that? I'm using Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty fawn.. thanks!!
The source code is usually named something like kernel-source or linux-source. Look for those in snaptic and install the package that matches the version of the kernel you are running. You can find out the version of your kernel by entering "uname -a" in a terminal.
