Package: acx100-source
Version: 20060521-3
Severity: serious
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I already have compiled with no problem the acx100 module to the kernel
2.6.18, with the module assistant. I actually checked again, it is still
working. This module do not want to compile anymore for 2.6.20. The log
of compilation is:
> # Build modules
> /usr/bin/make -C "/lib/modules/2.6.20-1-686/build"

So there seems to lack a file linux/config.h somewhere...
I checked in the 2.6.18 header tree, and there is such a file in the
include section, that is absent in the 2.6.20 header tree. This file is
actually written to be "no longer in use and kept for backward
compatibility", and is just a void header pointing to the
linux/autoconf.h header. I tried to manually copy the config.h from the
2.6.18 tree to the 2.6.20 tree. This seems to partially solve the
proble, as the compilation start further, but still stops on an error:

I didn't investigate further, as I am not a kernel guru, but it seems
that the module should be updated to fit some modifications in the new
kernel.
I hope I could help,
