    Where is linux-source-2.6.27 installed?

    I just performed an apt-get install linux-source-2.6.27 (intrepid [8.10 server]) and it successfully installed the source. When performing a "find" nothing is found other than /usr/share/doc/linux-source-2.6.27. Do I have to reboot? If that is not the solution, where are the source files installed?

    Thank you in advance,

    As you can see for example here, the linux-source-* packages only install a tarball of the sources in /usr/src. To actually use the sources, you must decompress them:

    Code:
    cd /usr/src
    sudo tar xjvf linux-source-2.6.27.tar.bz2
