Making the xpad360 driver in Hardy Heron: I am sure you guys have a better idea of what's going on here, but I can guess:
r...@ray-desktop:~/xpad360$ make make modules -C /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-28-generic SUBDIRS=/home/ray/xpad360 make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-28-generic' CC [M] /home/ray/xpad360/xpad.o Building modules, stage 2.
