You can find your kernel sources in /usr/src.

Do you have the kernel development packages installed? Some distributions, such as Mandrake, don't install your kernel sources by default. In /usr/src do you have a symlink "linux" and a directory "linux-2.4.whatever"?

Search the JL forums for 'mandrake kernel-source' and you will find lots of previous threads on the subject that explain exactly what you need.
