in short: you possibly need to extract some file like lm-sensors.tar.gz in /usr/src, or there should be some dir like /usr/src/modules/lm-sensors cd /usr/src/linux (or other source location) be sure your _correct_ kernel config is in ./.config (if you built the kernel with kernel-package too, it's ok, just do make menuconfig before). make-kpkg --revision=3:hostname.1.0 (this is my version numbering) modules_image (kernel_image) (you only need to add kernel_image if you want to compile your kernel too, if already installed, just copy your currect kernel config to .config before, and only do modules_image) the packages will be created in /usr/src, like lm-sensors-modules_version....deb, and possibly a kernel-image-2.2.x....deb read the kernel-package docs for more info. BTW: don't you need i2c too, for this work? i2c-source is a separate package, and you need it for lm-sensors stuff, the i2c code in the kernel is quite old iirc, read the lm-sensors docs (guess /usr/share/doc/lm-sensors-source) for more info, there's possibly some info about building it there too. -- ,-------------------------------------------. > Name: Alson van der Meulen < > Personal: [EMAIL PROTECTED] < > School: [EMAIL PROTECTED] < `-------------------------------------------' Go get your backup tape.
