[Solved] Build lircd modules on 2.6.32.8

[kimx]

Hi, I'm trying to build the modules needed to run a mceusb remote on the plug, but I'm having some trouble. I've grabed the kernel headers form http://sheeva.with-linux.com/sheeva/2.6.32.8/sheeva-2.6.32.8-KernelHeaders.tar.gz and have put them in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32.8 .
But when I try to run the command to compile the modules it fails:

Code:

module-assistant -f auto-install lirc-modules-source
 ....

If the running kernel has been shipped with the Debian           
distribution, please install the package linux-headers-2.6.32.8.
If your kernel source tree (or headers) is located in some       
non-usual location, please set the KERNELDIRS environment       
variable to the path of this directory, or (alternatively)     
specify the source directory we build for with the --kernel-dir
option in module-assistant calls.

Any help is appreciated

Thank you

Hi, I've managed to cross compile the modules, but if I load them I get the follwing errors in dmesg:

...

Hi, I've managed to crosscompile the needed modules for the mceusb remote. Now the remote works. It wasn't that easy because I had to get some sources from the svn and merge them with the sources of the lirc-modules-source package. I replaced the following files from the source package with the files from svn:
lirc_dev.c
lirc_mceusb.c
lirc_dev.h
kcompat.h
lirc.h

Afterwards I fixed some path in the .h files and the compile went well.
