o  uname -a, to determine which kernel version you are currently running.

o  apt-get install kernel-source-2.x.x, where x.x is determined by uname
-a.  Or, you could just install the latest if you wish.

o  do like the other message replies said about creating the link to
/usr/src/linux

I'm not sure you need a deb-src line in your /etc/apt/sources file or not.
(Is the kernel source package really considered a "source deb"?)

If the apt-get fails, then you need to add the following line 
as a minimum to /etc/apt/sources:

deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ potato main
