I've been trying and trying and trying to get this working for ages now but still haven't made a breakthrough.

I've used apt-get to install the kernel 2.2.20 source (my distro) and have downloaded the alsa-source and used debconf to select the right package.

I'm trying to make a .deb of this sound module as it seems the only way to get the thing working. I've tried doing ./configure, etc. With the .tar from the alsa-project site but that didn't work.

I believe I get the same error every time and I can't figure it. I'll just post what it shouts at me::

for module in /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver ; do \
if test -d $module; then \
(cd $module; \
if ./debian/rules KVERS="2.2.20" KSRC="/usr/src/linux" \
KMAINT="Unknown Kernel Package Maintainer" KEMAIL="unknown@unconfigured.in.etc.kernel-pkg.conf" \

KPKG_EXTRAV_ARG="" \
KDREV="10.00.Custom" kdist_image; then \
echo "Module $module processed fine"; \
else \
echo "Module $module failed."; \
echo "Hit return to Continue"; \
read ans; \
fi; \
); \
fi; \
done

This is after I've typed make-kpkg modules_image.
