So, I assumed that 1.0.8rc2 was breaking for the same reason, and tried passing the actual location of my kernel source : ./configure --with-cards=sb16 --with-sequencer=yes --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.25_orpheus.1.3 Which just worked fine. Please fix 1.0.8rc2's configure script so that it prints meaningful messages as 0.9.8.
