I don't speak German (Is it German?) but assuming that "Fehler" is error, you're trying to build a module that was designed to work with an earlier version of the Linux kernel. On the subject, according to LWN kernel patch log, there was an attempt to include this patch into the Linux kernel, but at least as far as I can see, the request was denied [1], pointing the submitter at the ASUS ACPI driver. Why do you need this module? Hot keys?
