The header files in /usr/include/linux aren't intended to be used to build actual kernel modules; see /usr/share/doc/libc6/README.Debian.gz. > so I remembered I need to install the kernel source.

You'll also somehow need to point the build scripts for the module to point at your actual kernel source (in your case, to /usr/src/linux/include). (Have you tried the 3c59x driver actually in the kernel source? It would appear to work for many 3c90x cards...) -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
