(solved) Cannot compile module against kernel 6.0.0

[JHM-O]

Hi Nick,

Something strange happens over here. After studying issues 66 and 67 I presumed my troubles with building against kernel 5.19.0 could be over. So I downloaded the latest zip file and gave it a new try with kernel 6.0.0. (Also gave it another try with 5.19.0)

Sadly, both still wouldn't work. So, what am I to think of that? Below, the error message, and below that my system info:

Hopefully, you can give some clarification?

Thank you very much!
