Thanks again! So, I've done some work to build the kernel modules, too. It works now, but it was far from being easy. linux-gpib uses such a weird, deviously-twisted buildsystem, that building the kernel modules, especially in cross-compilation, is not trivial: - they forget to pass correct include paths; - they override standard kernel headers because they want to provide legacy handling (but even fail at that). I've done a few patches to fix that (and the rest of the install procedure, btw) so that linux-gpib now should work, except for the language bindings, that are yet another challenge to address... :-/ You'll find my branch updated there: https://github.com/yann-morin-1998/buildroot/commits/yem/linux-gpib Regards, Yann E.
