Re: ATI drivers 3.2.5, kernel 2.6-test4 and modules

I have been trying my hardest to get ATI's 3.2.5 driver (the 3.2.5 are
supposed to be kernel 2.6 compatible) module to compile with kernel
2.6-test4 on my Debian unstable box. I have read the kernel doc's
concerning modules, but I can't seem to figure out what I am doing
wrong. I don't have any trouble with the 2.4 series.
<snip>
The error I keep getting when I run ./make.sh is:
marvin:/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod# ./make.sh
ATI module generator V 2.0
==========================
kernel includes at /lib/modules/2.6.0-test4/build/include not found or
incomplete
file: /lib/modules/2.6.0-test4/build/include/linux/version.h
This happens if make a symlink to linux in /usr/source or edit the
make.sh to point to /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6-test4
Any suggestions?

Lots of stuff changed from 2.4 to 2.6 and the ati drivers arent' totally
prepared for it. Zinx on #ati (freenode) has a port that I'm using
with my ATI 9800 + 2.6.0-test5. You can get it here:
http://zinx.xmms.org/misc/tmp/fglrx-module-3.2.5-for-2.6.0-test.tar.gz
Nothing changes as far as the setup goes, just use the tarball to build
the kernel module and put it somewhere in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/
Hope that helps.
