IT8212 Compilation Issues under 9.1....<grin>
 
New to the forum, so please bear with me.

I know this has been beaten to death here, and I have read as much as possible by searching, but I seem to have a slightly different problem than other posters.

When I first installed SUSE 9.1, without updating anything, I was ble to compile the IT8212 source (LinuxDriver_it8212_092005-09), and it would insmod with no trouble. I was able to mount and access a 160Gig HDD without a problem.

I then proceeded to due a massive system update, which worked excellently, and even managed to update KDE to 3.3.1 with no trouble. When I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.5-7.111 (along with the source, of course) the module will not compile, even after changing the Makefile to reflect the new kernel source and moving the iteraid.c, .h and Makefile into the /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.111/drivers/scsi directory.

Here are the errors I get when I run make:
Quote:

Can anybody suggest anything (helpful, that is)

In case anybody is actually interested, I found the solution.

Yes, I'm very interested, how did you solve this?

By running make modules from within the /usr/src/linux-whatever/your/number/maybe

This apparently creates the scripyts/modpost file needed by the Makefile.
