Some Linux distros have the /lib/modules/version/build link missing. I have found this in linux Mandrake 7.1 and Joao Carlos F Aydos has found this in Debian Woody.

The example solution for version 2.2.19 is to create a link to /usr/src/linux-2.2.19 to /usr/lib/modules/2.2.19.build. The software the builds ok under Mandrake 7.1.

Under Mandrake 7.2/8.0/8.1/8.2 the build link is correctly configured.

Hope this helps
