Installing the kernel-headers package makes this link but I still can't
build a module. When I do a

make KERNEL_SOURCE=/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.26

I get the following:

rm -f linux/drivers/char/fusion/Makefile
ln -s Makefile-2.4 linux/drivers/char/fusion/Makefile
make -C /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.26 \
CPPFLAGS="-D__KERNEL__ -I`pwd`/linux/include
-I/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.26/include" \
        SUBDIRS=`pwd`/linux/drivers/char/fusion modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.26'

The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.
Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support.
Then build a kernel with module support enabled.

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.26'
make[1]: *** [modules] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Doesn't have the normal kernel-sources packages module support enabled?
