Step 4: Build Error on Kernel 5.6

Hey, I'm getting this error when building on kernel 5.6.

make: Entering directory '/usr/src/kernels/5.6.16-300.fc32.x86_64'

make: Leaving directory '/usr/src/kernels/5.6.16-300.fc32.x86_64'

Any idea what might be causing this?

Yes the driver is kernel specific, the version in the repository is for kernel 5.4. But I now added a script that downloads and patches the correct version for the currently install kernel. See the new step 3 in the instructions. I hope it works for you!

Seems to build now, thanks.
