This looks like the kernel installed on your Debian
system in /usr/src/linux (the default one probably) is 2.2.17,
but you have 2.4.0-t9 compiled and running.
To properly compile for your newer kernel headers, you
just have to pass an options to configure:
./configure --with-linux-source=/path/linux
Use a path to the toplevel name of your new Linux dir.
Make sure to do a 'make dist-clean' in plex86 first,
to flush it out, after your previous compile.
