Re: error when compiling hello.c

["John Tyner" <jtyner@cs.ucr.edu>]

It looks to me like you've included files from /usr/include which you don't
want to do when building a module. Make sure that you have the

-I<your linux src dir>/include

on when you compile your module so that the <linux src dir>/include
directory is searched for include files.
