DiBosco Member Registered: Nov 2001 Location: Manchester, UK Distribution: Mageia Posts: 807 Rep:	asm/posix_types.h: No such file or directory I'm trying to compile a kernel module for a debugger and I have loads of errors but the first one from which they all seem to stem is this: /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-desktop-1mnb/source/include/linux/posix_types.h:47:29: error: asm/posix_types.h: No such file or directory AFAIK I have the Linux headers installed but uname -a gives this: Linux Duo 2.6.29.6-desktop-1mnb #1 SMP Sun Jul 5 19:57:54 EDT 2009 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6420 @ 2.13GHz GNU/Linux Whereas in the software installer, if I search for headers, the kernel-headers information gives this: Version: 2.6.29-1mnb2 Currently installed version: 2.6.29-1mnb2 This file: /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-desktop-1mnb/source/include/linux/posix_types.h does exist, but there is no asm subdirectory within the /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-desktop-1mnb/source/include/linux/ directory. Anyone have any clue at all as to what's going wrong? I can post lots more errors if needs be, but everything seems to stem from this. Many thanks.
