[Grml] headers and modules melange

[my]

Need to recompile to test ati driver.

I know this is somehow my fault, but do not know how or why:

  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
In file included from /usr/include/bits/posix1_lim.h:153,
                 from /usr/include/limits.h:144,

                 from scripts/basic/fixdep.c:113:

make[1]: *** [scripts/basic/fixdep] Error 1
make: *** [scripts_basic] Error 2


The build log for the driver module describes a mismatch:

[Message] Kernel Module : Trying to install a precompiled kernel module.
[Message] Kernel Module : Precompiled kernel module version mismatched.
[Error] Kernel Module : No kernel module build environment - please
consult readme.


What I would like is to have a complete build environment where I can
simply modules.  


Module assistant tells me the the kernel headers for the target kernel
versions cannot be found.

(yes I have both kernel headers from grml and mod ass installed its
own....

none of them work


What is the easiest way to make sure that building modules from non grml
sources will work every time?

Best,

Martin
