Your English is fine. Use a modern kernel, nobody wants to support development of 2.6.x. It's nearly four years old. sched_fair.c was moved to kernel/sched/fair.c in 2011, prior to release of version 3.3. It has had 345 changes since then. I realize this is for a class; you should tell your instructor that they should update the course to use a modern kernel version. If enough people do that, maybe it will eventually happen.
