How to use apt-get to compile source

[Uncrase]

I'm trying to set up a MythTV installation using a how-to that's using APT on Fedora to grab and add modules.

However, I am at a point now where I need to patch some .c source and compile a module manually.

I tried looking ways of doing this with apt, but that functionality doesn't seem to be there.
Trying to do a regular 'make' also doesn't do it since the kernel that was installed with apt doesn't seem to have module support installed.

Does anyone know more about apt on fedora and whether you shouldnt have to do any manual kernel recompiles if you use apt?

Thanks

Hi, if the RPM's don't work, you need to compile by hand. APT won't do this for you.

Do you have a link to this howto?

Do you have the kernel-source package installed if you are going to recompile the kernel?

Run

man apt

and

man apt-get

for a summary of apt commands.
