That means they're valid for EVERY architecture.

Do you run a 2.6 kernel, or have one installed ?
Then you also have the headers, no ?
You just have to make sure that /usr/include/linux points to the right
place (which it automatically will if /usr/src/linux points to the right
kernel tree).

Quite painful, yes : you have kernel -> you have headers.

Oops sorry, that shoulda been "obvious" ;-)
