Hi Folks,

Here's the solution we have found:

With the latest SuSE 2.6.5-7.75 kernel sources:

The problem is that /lib/modules/2.6.5-7.75/build points to
/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.75-obj which is some kind of wierd directory
that has:

. .. bigsmp debug default out smp

So simply removing this symlink and putting back a link to
/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.75 fixes our problems.

So the question is who is at fault here?. We used KBUILD to
build our modules and obviously the build link in /lib/modules/<kernel>/build
isn't pointing to the correct source tree.

IF the fault here is SUSE's, then submit THEM a bug report and stop whining in lkml.
If you did your homework in the first place you would see that that's not a
Linux Kernel problem and would not start this whole discussion.

All you've managed with this was ening with any reputation 4Front Technologies
could have between lkml readers.
