Also, be sure you actually -have- the full kernel source
installed. By default you'll probably only have the kernel
header files in /usr/src/linux/include, and /usr/src/linux
will be otherwise empty. *Save* the original /usr/src/linux
directory before unpacking your kernel source tree! By
default kernel sources unpack into the ./linux directory.
