still missing version.h when make include/linux/version.h

I am going to compile source in linux for my ethernet atheros ar8152 and require kernel source for it. So I get source by typing apt-get install apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.32. then cd /usr/src
tar -jxvf kernel-source-2.6.32.tar.bz2 ln –s linux-source-2.6.32 linux

What I am doing install the source ethernet is: make install

I got error message: Linux kernel source not configured - missing version.h

then, I goto kernel source directory make include/linux/version.h

and try again, I still got error message above.

How can I do next?

need you help!

Use apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) to get the proper kernel headers for your distribution and kernel version. kernel-source is usually for folks trying to build their own kernels.
