Actually I believe that versions.h is made when you compile with kernel versio

a 'mak make dep in the kernel source dir. At least I think that is correct

Hello all,
I'm now trying to configure my Voodoo 3 2000 card for fullscreen mode.
As far as I can tell I've installed everything from the Debian CDs
pertaining to glide and mesa and 3dfx. Now I'm left with a
device3dfx.tar.gz in /usr/src. When I untared and unzipped it I was
given a modules directory. I tried to compile anything in there I
could, but was given the error missing
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h configure the kernel first. Now
I'm stuck. Anyone have any hints? Am I even going in the right
direction? I've read several docs, but I can't find anything yet.
well, speaking from my own experience, the kernel source given by Debian
does not have a version.h. However, the kernel-headers *do*, so if you
have the kernel-headers for your kernel installed, that is what
/usr/src/linux should be pointed to, as long as you're going to compile
against headers there. of course, /usr/src/linux isn't really the way
of
doing things the way i understand it...but that should help you at least.
If you have kernel source code installed, you can do:
cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.x.x. make include/linux/version.h
and you should have version.h
