Hi Mike i had a problem with modversion.h not being found, is this part of
your problem? There is another issue, and that is that IIRC, the kernel
handle modules differently now, i think the change is in 2.2.18 but might be
in 2.2.17+patches not sure, because of this change most programs that are
used as module, like alsa and others had to upgrade to the new form, and
it's my understanding that Mr. Donald Becker hasn't updated the modules to
the new form, possibly the reason why is not compiling. If you have a
2.2.17 kernel i can provide you with the binary, i also would give you the
modification i did, but i lost them do to a crash, and the false sense that
i had backed'em up, when in reality i didn't, i also submitted a patch to
Mr. Donald Becker, but he hasn't implemented it or just didn't like it
don't know haven't heard from him.
Sorry i couldn't be of more help,
Juan Fuentes
