Package: linux-headers-2.6.16-1-686
Version: 2.6.16-2
Severity: normal
Hi. I have two kernel modules which I build from source, both of which worked
perfectly well with 2.6.15 but both fail when trying to compile for 2.6.16.
When I tried building madwifi, module-assistant reported unconfigured source
when examining the linux-headers-2.6.16-1-686 tree. Building the module didn't
work.
When I tried building the nvidia kernel module, I received lots of error
messages
that seem to me to be related to the kernel source headers not having been
configured, the same kind of problem as module-assistant reported. I dumped the
nvidia build messages to a file and will append them to this ticket in a
separate
message so things don't get too messy.
