Yes, I tried all the suggestions and looked at various
other Makefiles too. Unfortunatly, most of the modules
use single .c files.
My Makefile is still the same as the one I originally
posted.

Someone else feel free to correct me if I am wrong:
1) I looked in the modules.txt file that you point to above and nowhere
does it state what you state above.
2) obj-m should actually point to the name of the module you are trying
to build as far as I know.

3) What does your makefile look like now?
4) Did you actually try what I suggested below?
