well, speaking from my own experience, the kernel source given by Debian does not have a version.h. However, the kernel-headers *do*, so if you have the kernel-headers for your kernel installed, that is what /usr/src/linux should be pointed to, as long as you're going to compile against headers there. of course, /usr/src/linux isn't really the way of doing things the way i understand it...but that should help you at least. dave
