Greg, thanks. I should have mentioned that *all* modules I try to compile fail this way. If it was one or two I would have put it down to incompatibility with the new kernel, but in earlier rc versions of 2.6.21 (I think rc2) everything compiled quite fine. Thanks anyways - guess I'll have to be patient. Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
