Differential Geometry: Finding Integral Manifolds

[Sephi]

Hi people,
I'm learning differential geometry in a book (Intro to smooth manifolds, by John Lee) and I have some difficulties with the tangent distributions.
Actually, I don't know what to do if, given a distribution spanned by some vectors fields, I want to find its integral manifolds.
Can someone help me ?

I either do not understand your question or I may be stating something that you already know...
Integral manifolds of a given distribution are all manifolds $$M$$ for which $$\forall p \in M$$ there is a linear map between the tangent space and the distribution at that point.

Have you read up to page 503? There, it is remarked that embedded in the proof of Frobenius' theorem is a technique for finding integral manifolds and an example illustrating the method is given.
