Can't Compile Modem Driver (Pctel)

I've had a lot of trouble getting the driver for my modem to compile. I am new to Linux and have searched for an answer but haven't found anything yet.

I am running Gentoo. I installed the kernel sources and I see them in /usr/src/linux. I made a symlink to /usr/src/linux. However, when I try to compile the driver (Pctel), it still asks for the link to the kernel sources and will not compile.

What am I overlooking here? I am completely lost on this.

I recompiled the kernel and the driver finally compiled.

Now I just need to get the modem set up.
