I am trying to compile a kernel module on my BBB for the RFM12B transceiver
chip from the code I "git cloned" from here
https://github.com/gkaindl/rfm12b-linux
When trying to compile this from the instructions on that page on the BBB
itself, I get:
root@arm:~/rfm12b-linux# make

I am running Debian bone28 wheezy from rcn-ee.net and I have the
corresponding kernel headers installed.
I found this link
(http://gencarelle.com/blog/2013/07/19/problems-with-rtl8188cus/) for
someone running Ubuntu on the BBB but his fix for the missing arch type
doesn't work as there is no armv7l directory to softlink to.
There is also this link
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/5xMAyFxQbdE) on the
3.2 kernel from a year ago with a solution that required a compile of the
kernel from sources. But then I looked at the 3.8.13 sources on kernel.org
and mach/timex.h doesn't exist in there either.
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!
