I know these are newbie questions and I thank you for your help and patience.

Previously I had installed only the linux-image-xxx.deb from #270. When I tried to build #250, of course it errored out without the headers. When I tried to install the linux-headers-xxx.deb from #270, I received the following:

$ sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.35-27-generic_2.6.35-27.47lp621265v201102161837_i386.deb

I am assuming that I am just missing a repository reference that is not active by default. I have been searching around to find which one I am missing, but all I could find was a reference to the raw unpackaged source for it at:

   https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/linux/2.6.35-27.47

Any thoughts?
Thanks again for all the assistance in this matter.
