[hcflinux] Kernel 2.6.11 autoconf.h

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

you obtain this error message because the kernel source tree is not 
properly configured. It is possible that you will need to install an 
additional package or the script you have run failed.

You could try to contact Conectiva to know how to prepare your kernel 
tree to be able to compile kernel modules with it. Alternatively, you 
could try with a fresh 2.6.11 kernel from http://www.kernel.org.
