== Obtaining the kernel sources for an Ubuntu release using apt-get == The literal source code which generated a specific binary package may be obtained using the {{{apt-get source }}} command. For example to obtain the source for the currently running kernel you can use the command below: {{{ apt-get source linux-image-unsigned-$(uname -r) }}} or failing that: {{{ apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r) }}}
