Help with Compiling error please.

---

I am compiling a custom kernel for CM using cm source and a few other minor tweaks from others, and myself, and I am getting an error having to do with the bcm4329 while compiling.

I am pretty new to c programing and compiling and am not sure how to fix this error any help is greatly appreciated.

have you modified the wlan source at all?

if not, repull down the source fresh, and then re-merge your changes in.

havn't modified the wlan source at all, so I will repull and try again, will report back. Thanks.

Ok i got the kernel compiled and now I I want to compile the .ko for the wireless, can I get a little help with that?

If u ran a make, it was compiled.

Pick it up in drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329

I ran the make command from the cyanogen wiki, and used make ARCH=arm command and the wireless driver is not in the file it is supposed to be in.

Pass this to make:
Foldertoputmodulesin/ modules_install

Then you'll see your modules in there.

Gr8gorilla,

What did you do to get the kernel to compile? I'm getting the same error with a fresh pull.

If you check out my overclock how to, I take you step by step through making a kernel.

I still get the compile error after I followed the guide except I didn't use your modified files; I'm not overvolting or overclocking.
For what its worth, if I remove the bcm4329 kernel module from the config then it builds fine and is running stable on my Nexus One, albeit, without wifi.
