RE: Andrew, United States, kernel 3.0.0-12-generic

Okay, so far I have opened the .tar.bz2, and then I tried Phillipe's
suggestion. 

However I get an error message: cp: cannot create regular file
'/lib/modules/uname -r/build/include/linux/autoconf.h': No such file or
directory.

I tried Marvin's method for moving autoconf.h and it worked, but is that the
right place to put it for compiling the driver?

Enter it as `uname -r` :)

Otherwise you would have to type out all the numbers in your kernel
3.00-28-generic or whatever kernel version is running :)
