FTDI driver installation issues

Hi, I am trying to install a VCP driver for FT232R chip from ftdichips.com. Unfortunatey there is no installation manual/guidelines for linux driver available. When I try to build the source of the driver by

sudo make

it outputs the following error:

fatal error: /lib/modules/3.0.0-12-generic/build/include/linux/modversions.h: No such file or directory

I think it might be because I have my linux headers in diffrent directory installed? In which case I would have to create a symlink? OS: Ubuntu 11.10

Thank you
