Perhaps you need to show us the content of your Makefile, both for user and kernel space code, to ease clarification... > Moreover I would like to know wether it is possible to compile the user > space code and kernel space code in one make file I think yes, you just need to be careful for things like : CFLAGS (likely it will be different for user and kernel code), include path and so on. So, to avoid headache, I think it's better to separate the Makefile.... -- regards, Mulyadi Santosa Freelance Linux trainer blog: the-hydra.blogspot.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
