[solved] Kernel sources cannot be found

[sigg3.net]

I'm very new to compiling and makeing in linux, so please bare over with me. Using Kubuntu 6.06 (fresh install).

I'm compiling a source that doesn't have a .deb package, so I go the humpty dumpty manual way and after recovering from a tedious error message about a missing file ("gtk+-2.0.pc")** I now get a new error message when running ./configure.sh

user@Workstation:~/RutilTv0.11$ ./configure.sh
Your kernel sources cannot be found.
Kernel headers found...
They does not match your running kernel.

As said, I'm new to this, and I'm quite sure there's an easy way to solve it. Thanks for all your help!

** solution to the missing pc file error: in your package manager, find and install "libgtk2.0-dev".

Solved this meself

After checking out the Ubuntu forums (since most tips and tricks are the same among the two), I found out what to do. Following this method:
Kernel Compilation Dapper

Don't worry, I didn't compile anything. I just did step 1 through 4, and changed
Kernel_sources_path
in configure.sh
to point to /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15-26/
and it worked.

'make' worked with no problems
and 'kde make install' gave it the final touch.

This was my first time to compile anything at all from source. Now I just hope I haven't done anything horrific
