i have asus v1s and some time ago i was able to easily compile and install it. but now compiling fails... i hope u guys know what i can do, if there is anything that can be done...

after

svn checkout https://syntekdriver.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/syntekdriver syntekdriver

and

cd ./syntekdriver/trunk/driver

as well as

make -f Makefile.standalone

i got:
