Help with uvcvideo installation.

I'm trying to install uvc using the following commands:
1f40

Quote:

svn checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/linux-uvc/
cd linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk
make
sudo make install

However after make and sudo make install I'm getting the following error:

Quote:

Building USB Video Class driver...
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/build: No such file or directorymake: *** [uvcvideo] Error 1

Are there any packages I need to get to be able to build this?

It's probably really simple, but I only installed Linux yesterday so I'm not exactly up to speed on everything.
