Hi,
I browse through the whole net looking how to build a single module from drivers/staging. 

Tried this on /usr/src/linux:

make M=drivers/staging/xgifb/ modules

And it worked...
root at zeta-pc:/usr/src/linux# make M=drivers/staging/xgifb/ modules 
? CC [M]? drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.o
? CC [M]? drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_init.o
? CC [M]? drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_setmode.o
? CC [M]? drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_util.o
? CC [M]? drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_ext.o
? LD [M]? drivers/staging/xgifb/xgifb.o
? Building modules, stage 2.
? MODPOST 1 modules
? CC????? drivers/staging/xgifb/xgifb.mod.o
? LD [M]? drivers/staging/xgifb/xgifb.ko

Now when I try another one it does not work:

root at zeta-pc:/usr/src/linux# make M=drivers/staging/sm7xx modules
? Building modules, stage 2.
? MODPOST 0 modules
root at zeta-pc:/usr/src/linux# make drivers/staging/sm7xx/
? CHK???? include/linux/version.h
? CHK???? include/generated/utsrelease.h
? CALL??? scripts/checksyscalls.sh

I think maybe this is because I need to enable the module by on config.
Am I right?

Ezequiel.
