Newbie building a driver and missing headers.

I am modifying the the xf86-input-summa driver to work with my older Bitpad One digitizer (the Sketchpad uses a slightly different communication, two more bits resolution, etc), but i have a problem building.

I ran configure and it reported no errors, but when I make I get missing header files, like:

xf86Summa.c:33:25: error: xf86Version.h: No such file or directory
xf86Summa.c:122:24: error: xf86Config.h: No such file or directory
xf86Summa.c:124:24: error: atKeynames.h: No such file or directory
xf86Summa.c:128:19: error: osdep.h: No such file or directory

Where do I locate these files?
Plus, is there a tutorial someplace for newbies about building/designing drivers?

Re: Newbie building a driver and missing headers.

Hey tj,

Probably just requires an older version of XOrg or maybe even XFree86?  The best place to ask would probably be some XOrg related forums that are atleast semi-official or knowledgeable.
