I got the following on my machine
Pentium III, 128MB, Linux 2.4.13 while running make dep on 2.4.14
sa1100fb.c:164:27: linux/cpufreq.h: No such file or directory
sa1100fb.c:166:26: asm/hardware.h: No such file or directory
sa1100fb.c:169:28: asm/mach-types.h: No such file or directory
sa1100fb.c:171:30: asm/arch/assabet.h: No such file or directory
From my .config
#
# Frame-buffer support
#
# CONFIG_FB is not set
The files mentioned do not exist in arch that is i386. This driver seems
to be for the "arm" architecture.
I was wondering why this file is used in make dep. Did I miss something or
should I wait for kbuild in 2.5?

linux/cpufreq.h is a generic framework for controlling the CPU clock speed
(and therefore the power). It isn't merged into 2.4 yet (I was hoping to
get he generic framework merged into 2.4-ac around start of October, but
alas it didn't happen).
It's going to be merged in 2.5, and then backported to 2.4.

Yes, these are ARM specific. make dep creates the dependencies for all
files in the directory, and as such causes this problem. That said, it
is harmless on x86, and safe to ignore these messages.

make dep is fundamentally flawed, ignore all "file not found" messages.
Roll on kbuild 2.5, no more "make dep"!.
