I have a BeagleBoard XM on which I installed Ubuntu from rcn-ee. Now, I’m looking to install the 8192cu driver because I can’t get WiFi to work with the kernel driver. However, the makefile for the driver needs a path to the kernel source, which I can’t find.

I think the kernel is in /lib/modules/3.6.2-x3/kernel, but that doesn’t seem to have the source. How/where can I get the source for this in order to install the driver?

Note: If I give
KSRC := /lib/modules/3.6.2-x3/
I get
No rule to make target 'modules'. Stop.

    To build drivers you should only need the kernel headers. There is a thread on the beagleboard group that explains where to find the source and headers (note that it is fairly old, so you may need to adjust for your build).
