I have installed Debian Sarge on a legacy HP box using the speakup-modified net-install CD, and am running the 2.4.27 
kernel. The only available support for the on-board sound interface is a driver for the Rockwell RIPTIDE sound 
interface, which requires the 2.4.27 kernel. But it is a module that needs to be compiled, and the compilation dies 
when it cannot find the kernel source tree. 

I have installed the kernel headers package for the 2.4.27-2-speakup kernel that is running, and linked it to 
/lib/modules/2.4.27-2-speakup/build as well as to /usr/src/linux, but that did not fool the compilation step for a 
minute.

Where can I find the source tree for the kernel I am using? Or lacking that, what else can I use in place of it, so that 
the module will compile? 

Hope someone has some ideas. I have used mine all up!

Chuck
