I didn't follow PS3 patches very closely on ppc-devel, but you might try the powerpc.git tree, it probably would have more ps3 patches than the kernel.org releases. > Finally, at least one of the problems in the compile below is the lack of > adequate compiler flags for the PPC64/Cell architecture.

Well, you do get all the same flags under 2.6 as those used by the kernel itself when compiling external modules just by doing "make -C <kernel tree path> M=<external modules path> modules" and your Makefile should just contain the minimum... And that's indeed what is done by the Makefile in the vendor zd1211 driver. Try adding "V=1" to the make command line and see if you get all the same flags as the kernel itself. You might want to comment out this line: EXTRA_CFLAGS += -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -pipe from the zd1211 Makefile though.
