The header config.h got removed from the kernel source in directory /usr/src/linux/include/linux but many drivers were not updated to reflect this. I think your options are: 1. Find a copy in an old kernel source 2. Make a dummy file (it doesn't do much) 3. Symlink to autoconf.h in the same directory HTH -Robin -- ------------------------------------------------------ Robin Atwood -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
