I'm away from that box at the moment but IIRC the kernel's
version is
"Modules.symvers". A different name. I copied it
over to p80211 but it still
failed. The copy was not there after the build failed.

Since trying to build 0.2.7 on that box the last update
broke the usb system,
among other things. So I am presently in the process of
moving everything over
to 10.2 and FC6. Having problems with that because 10.2 does
not seem to like
seeing reiserfs on usb and freezes.

I'll try 0.2.7 or 0.2.8 on 10.2; their version seems to have
a problem too,
which I have not had time to investigate--besides the
missing pc card module.
