Hi,

you have posted on the DriverLoader list instead of the HSF one. The HSF =

list information is available at:

https://www.linuxant.com/mailman/listinfo/hsflinux/

That kind of error happens when the kernel headers are installed but not =

configured to build 3rd party kernel modules. Since you are using a =

kernel packaged with a Linux distribution, you will probably need to =

install all the configured kernel headers in order to use a generic =

package. On OpenSUSE, you can probably install this with the 'yast -i =

kernel-source' command in a root shell.
