Ok, I am with serious problems. My PC has a tricky hardware that makes me need to recompile a module to have access to the Internet.
As I said above, I don't have access to the net trough Ubuntu (or any other Linux), so it's useless to try to install it trough Synaptic (I already tried).
I have been searching trough the net to see where can I download the source, but I can't find it (or I searched badly, or it is hard to find).
So, if anybody knows where i can download Ubuntu Gutsy kernel source, please comment.
Thank you in advance

EDIT: This is now solved. As Simeon showed, we can download it here.
Thank You
EDIT2:
OK, that helped me a lot, but now I have a new problem. I identified the problem and I know how to fix it. But I don't know where to find the file for where I need to make the corrections. I already posted at Kubuntu Forums over 1 (maybe 2) weeks and still not a single answer (2nd time it happens to me, I'm disappointed with that community).
You can see my problem here: (link)
Note: don't mind if my question sounds too noobish, or if I seem to be answering to myself, I don't notice it a lot.
And that this is registered: I don't like posting off topic help request threads on the forums (even on off topic section), but sometimes I have to.
EDIT3: I managed to find where to find the sis file.
It is on .../drivers/net/sis190.c
Thank you all
(now lets see if I can compile the kernel)

or
http://www.kernel.org/

I was thinking to go to kernel.org, but I wasn't sure if the kernel would work correctly with the custom Ubuntu kernel. Anyway, thank you veeeery much!
Blue is everything.
I have a new problem, related to the previous, that I don't think that it is worth of posting on a new thread.
You can read about it above (it's about modules compiling and where to find files).
Blue is everything.
with this one.
I just googled it and it came up with 1 entry. Must be pretty rare
but I found lots of sis190.c
Did you try Ubuntu forums (without the K)?

I first searched google for the sis 191 enthernet card. But all it had was about the Ndsiswrapper (is it well written?). The, on Ubuntu Forums (in which I am not member) I found something about recompiling a module.
O know that I need to find the sis191.c file on the downloaded kernel and modify the following lines:
The strong characters are the ones I need to change with the ones I said on kubuntu forums. Now I can't find the thread there.
But I'll create an account there.
EDIT: Still haven't created an account there, but I found the thread: (link)

SOLVED!!! (Yes, I know I'm yelling, but think like this: I'm yelling of happiness) I discovered the file: blablabla/drivers/net/sis190.c
Solved!!! By now...
Thank you all!!!
