Hi,
(I assume everybody is on -devel, like I am, and as it seems the problem sits between keyboard and chair, no bug report either).
This might very well be, as I didn't compile the kernel myself (I just use the standard kernel-image-2.6.10-1-k7 package) but used kernel-source-2.6.10 with the .config from the image package, make oldconfig and make dep (which I was told is deprecated, so).
So, basically, your saying that the right way to do this kind of things is to use the corresponding kernel-headers package, and apt-get tells me that I need as well kernel-kbuild to build "out-of-tree kernel modules" which seems to be exactly what I need.
Thanks, Eric

i'm guessing that this has to do with how you compiled the module.
IME, this message is typically seen when one complies a module against a 2.6 kernel tree where 'make clean' has been run since the latest kernel build.
The kernel-headers-2.6.*-foo packages should ship enough intermediate files in /usr/src/kernel-headers/* to prevent this problem, but one easily gets in trouble [1] if one compiles custom kernels without being aware of the problem.
[1] Well, such as it is. As long as one does not get oneself in more trouble by trying to use the module against a different kernel build, the warning message at load time seems to be all that happens.
