If you're trying to compile a kernel module, install linux-headers-2.6.15-26-386 package instead. Then you should create /usr/src/linux symlink that points to installed kernel headers on /usr/src folder.

Hi ,

Thanks ! it worked.
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.15-26-386

Regarding the link, Could you please explain me? I have these many things under /src/

root@asterisk:/usr/src# cd linux-
linux-headers-2.6.15-26/ linux-headers-2.6.15-26-386/ linux-source-2.6.15.tar.bz2
root@asterisk:/usr/src# pwd
/usr/src
root@asterisk:/usr/src#



Thanks in advance,
Sylvester

If you already got the kernel module compiled, then you don't have to do the symlink. If you get erros when trying to compile the module, try

sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-26-386 /usr/src
