Well perhaps documentation on what exactly the calling syntax is, what
the nevironment is and such would be helpful.

I managed to get the nvidia driver to build with linux-modules-* for
2.6.24, but for 2.6.25 I can't figure out why it keeps failing.  Both
versions work great with module-assistant, so something must be
different.  So far it makes me think what module assistant does is right
and what linux-modules-* does must be wrong, but that's probably too
simple a view on the problem.
