You really shouldn't use the header files in /usr/include/linux for anything if you can help it; they're only there because some things in libc depend on them. (See /usr/share/doc/libc6/README.Debian for more details.) If you need to build a kernel module you need a kernel source tree corresponding to your kernel; if you're running a Debian-provided kernel, you can use the appropriate kernel-source-* package for this purpose. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
