Need a good Open Sourced Linux OS for driver development !

I currently have Ubuntu 10.10, but I could not find the code for USB driver.... it had only the makefiles !

I need the object files, c files or perl files for that driver !

How do I do that ?
Please help ! :D

The code for the USB driver will more likely be a Kernel module, so I think you'll need to take a look at the Linux kernel source code. The source for the kernel used in Ubuntu 10.10 should be in the repos.

If you want to create your own kernel modules, you might want to look at this, which deals with compiling new/custom kernels in Ubuntu 10.10
