thank you for making this clear. tough my problems still persist:
what path do i need to put in driver/Makefile? the one to linux-headers
(which is usually used for compiling modules) or the one to
linux-sourcesm (as mentioned in the README)?
i tried both, but both are giving me errors. assuming that i am supposed
to use the path to linux-headers (because then i don't get any 'no such
file or directory'-errors), here is the output of make:
make -C driver

is there any chance to get this working here? if yes, will it support
the LED display on the front of my w1962? (all other acpi features are
already working here with the ubuntu standard kernel)
thanks for any hints
roman
