I have problems with "sudo dkms build psmouse/alps-dst-1.0".
After writing that in the terminal (of course I'm at usr/src/psmouse-alps-dst-1.0) I get:
Creating symlink /var/lib/dkms/psmouse/alps-dst-1.0/source ->
                 /usr/src/psmouse-alps-dst-1.0

DKMS: add completed.
Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.5.0-17-generic cannot be found.
Please install the linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic package,
or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located

After writing:
sudo dkms install psmouse/alps-dst-1.0
sudo rmmod psmouse && sudo modprobe -v psmouse

It don't work... :(
I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 64bit, and I had no problems in Linux Mint 13 KDE 64bit.

Thanks!
