if the kernel is 6.1.0-31-amd64, the kernel-header-package is linux-headers-6.1.0-31-amd64 If in doubt, install the "module-assistant" package, then start it with the command "m-a", and then over the ncurses-gui you can easily prepare your compiling environmen for building kernel-modules. It is self explainary and it will install all packages you need for the actual running kernel. Hope this helps. Best Hans
