I think you have to do a 'make dep' first.
Something that I think I've done before: after the dep, cd to the dir.
where the module's code lives and just type 'make' there. Should make a
module. Then copy to the appropriate place in your /lib/modules/`uname
-r`/ directory.
Or since it doesn't take much time, maybe just a 'make modules_install'
in the top level directory, so you overwrite the ones you already had
installed, big deal... just make sure you didn't do a make clean first.
;)
OR, you could do what I do, which is to fire off the whole "make dep
clean install modules modules_install" ordeal and then go do something
else (other work, coffee, sleep).
