So I've downloded the 3c59x.c code i put in /usr/src/modules
gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -O6 -c 3c59x.c
gcc: O6:No such file or directory
gcc: no input files
3c59x.c:81: warning #warning you must compile the file with the correct
options
3c59x.c:82: warning #warning See the last line of the source file
3c59x.c:83: warning #error you must compile this driver with "-O"
3c59x.c:99: linux/modversion.h: Nosuch file or directory
3c59x.c:126 pci-scan.h: No such file or directory
3c59x.c:127 kern_compat.h: No such file or directory
 
I've tried to remove the line 99 126 127
but nothing happend
Tried to do as the end file 3c59x.c says 
/usr/src/modules#make KERNVER=2.4.18-bf2.4 3c59x.o
same error accoured3c59x.c:81: warning #warning you must compile the

3c59x.c -o 3c575_cb.o -I/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18/include/

So at that pont i quited
