Yeah, I have installed comedi on three or four computers running SuSE, & there have always been files needed by comedi that were not found where expected. The procedure I have been advised to use & that seems to work is (1) pick the first missing file & use the find -name irq_vectors.h command as root from the root directory to find the places where SuSE puts the missing file. [I use "irq_vectors.h" merely as an example of one file that is often not found.] (2) Then go to the top of the comedi directory & do kwrite Makefile, & search Makefile for the string LINUX_FLAGS. In the paragraph following that string, look for fragments like "-I/lib/modules/....". Those are directories where comedi looks for the files. (3) copy the missing file from one of the paths chosen by SuSE to one of the path chosen by comedi. Then go on to the next missing file.
