no clue. I've just pulled the sources from cvs by anonymous access and
compiled them successfully with gcc 2.95.4 and 3.3 for kernels 2.6.7 and
2.6.8.1.

Is this your first run or have you compiled an older driver version
before?

Please post the _first_ 10-20 warnings and error lines from the make run,
errors from the middle won't give any information.
