Hi dee Ho list!

I had comedi drivers && comedilib provided in a tarball at
comedi.orginstalled on SuSe
9.1. However I had problems with comedi_calibrate with PCI-DAS 6014 DAQ
card. I noticed that comedi_calibrate was changed to CVS version, and
decided to see if it affects on calibrating my card. Anyways, since I'm
generally quite displeased with SuSe, I decided to give FC 5 a try. Now I am
not able to compile comedi with FC 5 kernel (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5). I did try
it in a following way:

1. I downloaded the correct kernel.scr.rpm, and installed it. Then I
selected the correct .config for my kernel, and copied it into .config file
at the sources top directory. Next I created symbolic link /usr/src/linux
pointing in the sources directory.

I did full make for kernel sources.

2. I get the CVS version of both comedi and comedilib, and placed them in
/usr/src/linux. (where the sumbolic link pointed.)

Then I ran ./autogen.sh without any options (output of that below) (in
/usr/src/linux/comedi folder)
Next I tried make in same folder.

Output of ./autogen.sh

[matti_at_localhost comedi]$ ./autogen.sh

I also tried autogen.sh with parameters  --enable-kbuild
-with-linuxconfig=/usr/src/linux/.config
(I admitt, using --enable-kbuild switch was just a wild guess :) ) Then I
received following outputs:

Does anybody have anyideas of

a) if I did something wrong? (highly possible since this is first time I try
to compile kernel/kernel modules all by my self)
b) if there's some other problem?
  b.1) Can I fix the problem?
  b.2) If I can't fix the problem and I should try somehing else but FC 5


Thanks in advance :)
