Hej
        Sorry I have a typo, it should read as follows: I failed the final "/"

   perl -pi -e 's/\015/\012/g' Makefile

DOS:
   It being dos, this would depend on what means you have acquired the source.  
For example, if you copied from web pages, this is very possible or the wrong 
switches downloading via ftp etc... 

ENCODING:
   You should check the encoding to be sure...  If you open the file with 
gedit, when you "save as" if the file is anything other than latin1 or ascii,  
save it as latin1, then try make again...

-- I see both of these as potential issues, as the make file you coped should 
not have given the errors you claimed, unless something the like is at play :)


MODULES:
When the others refer to building modules, I think they mean that you should 
install kernel source and compile that

eg:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
cd /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r`
make modules
... but you will probably need to run make config and a bunch of other things.



Bienvenue, Gluck!
