Hi, Siraj. Did you type "--with-l26=/path/to/linux-2.6/" in directly
or did you give it the correct path to your kernel headers? On
Debian, you'd probably want to run it like this:
./configure --with-l26=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
The OpenFlow wiki has full instructions for Debian:
http://openflowswitch.org/wk/index.php/Debian_Install
By the way, this mailing list is really focused on NOX, which is a
controller for OpenFlow. There are a lot of OpenFlow developers on
this mailing list, but questions specific to OpenFlow should probably
go to them. It doesn't appear that there's a general mailing list at
openflowswitch.org, so I'll ping them about that...
Also, you'll need a newer version of OpenFlow than is available on
openflowswitch.org. I'd recommend the following:
http://noxrepo.org/releases/openflow-0.9.0~b1.tar.gz
In the very near future, the OpenFlow consortium will be releasing
v0.8.9, which will be compatible with NOX. Until then, you'll need to
use the tarball shown above.
Good luck. Let me know if you continue to have issues.

Dear Sir
I am PhD student at Royal Institute of technology Sweden. I am
interested to learn about openflow switches and to do research in
this field.
I am facing problem regarding Kernel based open flow installation. i
am using Debian unstable kernel 2.6.26. To build open flow switch in
kernel space i executed following commands according to instructions
given on the nox and open flow websites.
( i am using openflow version 0.8.2)
./configure --with-l26=/path/to/linux-2.6/
make
In result following binaries are created
openflow-v0.8.2/secchan/secchan
openflow-v0.8.2/utilities/dpctl
openflow-v0.8.2/controller/controller
But
openflow-v0.8.2/datapath/linux-2.6/openflow_mod.ko
"openflow_mod.ko" is not present there. Therefore i could not load
kernel space switch.
Can you guide me to solve this issue.
Regards
Siraj
