[hcflinux] problems with a debian (linex) version

[Kevin Ross]

I'm using the driver just fine with Debian Woody.  You didn't say much about
your configuration.  You need the kernel-headers package installed to build
the hcf driver.  Try:

# apt-get install kernel-headers-2.4.18
# ln -s /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.18 /lib/modules/2.4.18/build

and then try hcfpciconfig again.

Let us know if you continue to have problems.

hello there.
i'm trying to make my conexant hcf modem run under Debian Woody (Linex
version) and i've been able to manage all the problems i was having during
the way until this moment... after running the hcfpciconfig, when it seems
everything went fine, until i get an error recompiling the kernel, tell me
to look the error log , and that's what i find... and i don't know what can
be wrong, i'm newbie at linux... so if anyone can give me a clue about what
might be wrong...
thanks!
David
