I can confirm the problem that Brian Rogers reported on Edgy. My work-
around was a little different than Mazirian's. Disclaimer: this may not
be the "right" way to do it; I'm new at building kernel modules.

To get the missing files, I installed and unbzipped the kernel souces

  sudo apt-get install linux-source
  cd /usr/src
  sudo bzcat linux-source-2.6.17.tar.bz2 | sudo tar xv

Then I copied the missing files into the kernel headers area:

  cd /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.17/drivers/media/video/bt8xx
  sudo cp -a * /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/video/bt8xx/
  cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/video
  sudo cp bt8xx/bt* .

Then rebuilding with module-assistant I got another error.

include/../drivers/media/video/bttvp.h:51:23: error: btcx-risc.h: No
such file or directory

I fixed this in a similar way:

  cd /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.17/drivers/media/video
  sudo cp -a btcx-risc.h /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/video

This allowed the module-assistant build to work:

  sudo m-a a-i lirc
