I've done some more digging.  From the README file
in :/var/lib/dkms/agrsm/2.1.80-4mdv2009.0/build$ is the following:

"Please note that this version of the driver is intended to work Red
Flag NE 5.0 having Linux kernel version 2.6.21.0-22"

My kernel version is version 2.6.24-16-generic.  

Do you agree that this is probably the problem and if so, where would I
find the correct package?

Thanks,
John
