Just seeing this now @FosRex. I will see what I can do on this one. Appreciate the suggestion

Oh, nevermind about my previous comment. I have now read the DKMS package guidelines. But a new note to newcomers about installing their respective headers might be helpful. Thanks for the package :).

I think the linux-headers should be a dependency(I am not sure if it is a required dependency or a make dependency but), without it their are these errors:
