Ok, what does `ls -ld /usr/src/linux/include/asm` say? Do you use KBUILD_OUTPUT to direct the objects from kernel compilation to a different directory?
(In reply to comment #7) > Ok, what does `ls -ld /usr/src/linux/include/asm` say? no such file or directory. your direction led me to realize I needed to make a symlink from asm-i386 to asm. (I thought that was taken care of automatically on emerge?) by doing that, and by first doing a inital 'make' before emerging 'madwifi-driver', it is seeming to emerge OK. I need to test to make sure the drivers actually work, but the emerge part looks under control. I'll reboot, and if the drivers work you can mark this CLOSED (unless the symlink was supposed to be made automatically)
(In reply to comment #7) the drivers appear to be working just fine - thanks for all of your help! mark CLOSED if appropriate
The symlink is made when calling `make` in the kernel sources.
Closing as INVALID.
