None given that the only clue is "I can't run make" and "everything else
is OK."

Your broken setup might be fixed by re-installing linux-headers and
linux-kbuild.



Thanks, but I've already done that twice.  It's got me.

Guess I'm going to have to just dump this system and start from scratch.
  Fortunately, it's only a test system I built to test the new module(s).


Hi Jerry,

Reinstalling the system won't help.

I used packages.debian.org to figure this out and followed the solution
listed here:
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=62877&sid=fa12a2b8afd8827ef9ce71e8826d049f&start=15

Have you installed the package dkms?

This in turn should install the package linux-kbuild-3.2 which includes
the needed scripts.

Sincerely,
Kailash



Thanks, Kailash, but I've already seen that (and several other) solutions. linux-kbuild-3.2 is installed. I tried it with dkms installed also, with no change.

Meanwhile, since we haven't been able to get this working, we may have to do it under Windows. And I hate windows, but we have to get this working. The old OS/2 system is on it's last legs.
