Hi,
Somehow i've gotten myself in a corner with the new 2.1.20 kernel source and can't seem to compile it. I have a couple questions:
1. What are the *.ver files in the include/modules directory? I don't seem to have them for 2.1.20. What creates them and where to i find them. I copied the *.ver files (reluctantly) from the 2.0.18 source and got a bit further....but several modules are not compiling properly.
2. Also insmod 2.1.13 won't compile either. is there a patch?
Any ideas appreciated...btw snippet of kernel make below...showing the errors coming from one of the modules...ppp.
tia, Jim
