Hi Adam
thanks for the input, heres what I get
# apt-cache search kernel-source-2.6
kernel-patch-debian-2.6.5 - Debian patches to Linux 2.6.5
kernel-patch-debian-2.6.6 - Debian patches to Linux 2.6.6
kernel-patch-debian-2.6.7 - Debian patches to Linux 2.6.7
kernel-source-2.6.5 - Linux kernel source for version 2.6.5 with Debian patches
kernel-source-2.6.6 - Linux kernel source for version 2.6.6 with Debian patches
kernel-source-2.6.7 - Linux kernel source for version 2.6.7 with Debian patches
I just know its going to be something really silly, but I cant work
out how to get the current (2.6.8) kernel source
Ive also tried this
# uname -r
2.6.8.1-3-386
# apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.8.1-3-386
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package kernel-source-2.6.8.1-3-386
:-/
