The bit you seem to have missed is linking (ln) or copying the kernel includes (in linux/include/linux and linux/include/asm) to /usr/include. Have a look at these guides: http://alge.anart.no/linux/robotti/kernel-compile-guide http://linuxfaq.quartz.net.nz/node86.html

Many thanks for that timely advice! I had another go this morning, having set the symlinks for asm, linux & scsi and - lo and behold - it all worked without further ado. Kernel compiled and is now installed.

Even better news - now the USB camera that I pestered so many people over works with Slackware and the new kernel, too.

Thanks again to everyone here who contributed to this advancement!
