Resolved

My apologies. I discovered that I'm mixing apples and oranges. The problem was that I was trying to associate standard makefile commands while attempting to build a module driver.

The proper make command was:

make -C <kernel location> M=`pwd` modules

The makefile contained:

obj-m := <codefile>.o

Of course, the makefile can be changed to simplify the commandline.

I've been in management too long, and miss the development. But I see, I've got some catching up to do. --- Thanks
