cant compile nForce on debian

[LinHiNun]

Hi I'm trying to compile the latest nForce driver on debian (IT's really knoppnix distro)

Anyhow, when I try to compile, I get the following errors:

make nvaudio.o

and many more. I'm trying to get the sound card to work. Anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks,

To compile the nvidia nforce package you need the kernel headers for your kernel. Currently the makefiles are using files from /usr/include/asm and /usr/include/linux but those headers are generic glibc ones which can't be used to compile kernel modules. Futher note that the i810 audio driver works too with your card, nvidia's own driver isn't much different. (it is a hacked i810 driver)
