[Bug 456123] [NEW] Karmic: cannot compile acerhk-source. No rule to make target kernel/bounds.c.

[moma]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: acerhk-source

Hello,

I have Fujitsu Siemens AMILO laptop and need desperately to compile the
acerhk-source module. It is vital for activation of  WLAN in this laptop
model.

This posting has more background about this:
http://newyork.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1294262

So I try to compile the acerhk-source modle, but it fails with error
message "No rule to make target `kernel/bounds.c', needed by
`kernel/bounds.s'."

I do this:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
 
$ sudo apt-get install acerhk-source

It will install the source tar-balls in the /usr/src/ director.
Let's unpack them.

$ cd /usr/src

$ sudo tar -xvjf acerhk.tar.bz2

Compile the acerhk source
$ cd modules/acerhk

$ sudo make

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `kernel/bounds.c', needed by `kernel/bounds.s'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [prepare0] Error 2
--------------

Please help.
