yeah, followed by a make dep and you should be set _if_ the kernel
source is the same version as the kernel you're running.
actually, the reason why building those drivers requires the kernel
source is because it needs the kernel-header files. so, alternatively, if
you're running one of the debian pre-configured kernel-image packages, you
can just install the kernel-headers package of the same version kernel,
and then you don't need the kernel source at all. or, if you're made
your own kernel with make-kpkg, make-kpkg binary will make not only a
deb for your kernel image but also make a kernel-headers package as well.
anyway, good luck
