Please name the linux header for tahrpup6.0.2 non-pae
I need to install the kernel header via ppm but it's difficult to know which one it is. And, I've tried equating it to an ubuntu tahr 14.4 kernel header I got from a turorial which used the same kernel version as this distro but it says 'package not available, try updating ppm(done that but still it says 'package missing in repository')'. So which kernel-header do I need for tahrpup 6.0.2 non-pae?.

I'll also need to install build-essentials and I don't know if it's included in the devx.sfs or not which I already have so if you can inform me about that too, I'll appreciate the help.

BTW IFM, I plan to compile from source an NDIS driver thus the above. Thanks in advance

You probably need the kernel sources.
Is it not in quickpet?
