I'm running Knoppix 3.3-11-19 on a HD install.
I downloaded and unpacked kernel-source-2.6.0-test9.
Made a symlink between that directory and "linux.
cd'd to linux and tried to run both make xconfig and make menuconfig.
Here's the error I'm getting.

Code:
root@tiger:/usr/src# cd linux
root@tiger:/usr/src/linux# make xconfig
  HOSTCC  scripts/fixdep

                 from /usr/include/netinet/in.h:24,

I went looking for /usr/include/bits/socket.h and it's there.

Any ideas?
