Hi
easiest way (for you):
send a link to me for the tarball :)
do yourself:
It depends of what do you need:
If it is a single modules with several c files:
example:
3rdparty/mod_quickam/{Makefile,Config.in}
you need to have the same directory name than the module (without the
.o), and your config option should be CONFIG_<dirname> in uppercase.
If you really need several modules from a single directory, and each
module has several object files, then options are:
a- split the package in directories, one by module, look at the
prism25 module.
b- if you want to have them into that directory look at:
sound/pci/Makefile, and use th esame -obj & link command for each
module.
Later, Juan.
