Just installing a program and it wants to compile something and needs the folder where the "C Headers for your kernel" are.

In the drake 10.0, where can I point it to to find these? It had /usr/src/linux/include as the default directory.

Cheers

There is another way being used in the more modern systems which uses a link "/lib/modules/build/include" (I think :D ... my brain's not working at the moment after two weeks of the flu).

You could make the /usr/src/linux link.
