What I always recalled was the kernel source tree included /usr/src/linux/include... Then there would be symlinks in /usr/include... pointing back to the real source tree of the linux kernel. I'm not on my linux box right now or I'd take a quick look to be sure. -----Original Message----- From: Janina Sajka [mailto:janina@xxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, July 23, 2001 6:42 AM To: speakup at braille.uwo.ca Subject: Re: /usr/include and /usr/src/linux/include Well, the stock 2.4.7 kernel creates an actual directory /usr/src/linux/include. So, I'm still befuddled. I guess I can symlink all the headers from /usr/include/linux into /usr/src/linux/include--but that didn't work for me. My compile attempt choked, complaining about speakup, actually. I tried yesterday afternoon--downloaded linux-2.4.7 from ftp.kernels.org and ran checkout to get speakup patched in. It would not compile. On Sat, 21 Jul 2001, Chris Nestrud wrote: > I think it's /usr/include/linux to /usr/src/linux/include/linux.
