Yes I did run sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) to download the necessary headers. I also ran an apt-get for source files and it did install a whole bunch of them but Im not under the impression that you actually need the source files as well since they suppose to come with the OS?
No, many distributions don't come with the source files.
The thing its complaining about... unistd_32.h appears to really be missing. Could this be because of a 64Bit version of the OS?
No, I've ran your code last night on a 64bit machine of mine and beside some compiling errors due to wrong syntax and function declaration it was all fine.
Maybes just doesnt install it because its not necessary. But that wouldnt make sense because in unistd.h the only include there is will be the unistd_32.h and nowhere inside stands anything of #include<unistd_64.h>
It seems to me, you are just missing the necessary tools from your distribution to do the kind of work you want to do. Try a google search on your distro + kernel development and you probably will find what you need. Usually what you must get are the linux-source, kernel-devel and kernel-tools packages.
