I'm trying to compile the latest ALSA and Audio Science drivers on my 2.4.24-1.ll.rh90.ccrma kernel. Whenever I attempt to "make modules", I get a bunch of errors when it gets to drivers/net/dummy.c:

In file included from /usr/src/linux-2.4.24-1.ll.rh90.ccrma/include/linux/spinlock.h:57,
from /usr/src/linux-2.4.24-1.ll.rh90.ccrma/include/linux/module.h:11,
from dummy.c:32:

/usr/src/linux-2.4.24-1.ll.rh90.ccrma/include/asm/spinlock.h:10: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype


Anybody know what's up with this? Is there some configuration I haven't done right and need to do?

Pointers to other forums where someone might know would be just as welcome as an answer.

Thanks

Don't quote me on this, but I suspect you need the kernel sources installed in order to compile the modules. If they are installed and don't compile, then maybe you need the alsa devel package as well.
