I've used DKMS for ecryptfs, unionfs, qvm86, and a few other drivers,

It's also been working great for me [for years] for ov518 webcam
support. You have no idea how nice it is to compile some wacky -mm
kernel, fire it up, and have all your hardware working without having to
manually do this yourself.
I'd be interested in doing the same for the acx100 module, or
preferably the cleaned up and softmac based tiacx module from here :
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/linville/
But the files, especially the included Makefile, are meant for the
module to be built at the same time as the kernel. The usual "make
-C /lib/modules.../build -M `pwd`" doesn't work, and I'm really not
familiar enough with makefiles, nor with the special makefile kernel
magic to understand how to adapt this :
acx-common-y := wlan.o ioctl.o common.o
acx-usb-y := usb.o
acx-pci-y := pci.o
obj-$(CONFIG_ACX_PCI) += acx-common.o acx-pci.o
obj-$(CONFIG_ACX_USB) += acx-common.o acx-usb.o
If anyone knows what needs to be changed to get both modules built,
please let me know. Too bad this modules hasn't made it into 2.6.18 :-(
Was able to build with makefile below. also, remove all occurrences of
'#include <linux/config.h>', and add '#include <linux/utsrelease.h> to
the file pci.c
----------------------------
acx-common-y := wlan.o ioctl.o common.o
acx-usb-y := usb.o
acx-pci-y := pci.o
obj-m += acx-common.o acx-pci.o
obj-m += acx-common.o acx-usb.o
KERNEL:= $(shell uname -r)
KDIR:= /lib/modules/$(KERNEL)/build
PWD:= $(shell pwd)
all:
$(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules
