I don't know that this is exactly a bug, more of a yet to be supported kind of a thing I believe. However, I don't really know where else to take these questions - sorry in advance for any wasted time. NVidia hosts linux drivers on their site for the NForce board's ethernet capabilities. Sadly, these do not make properly on the version of the Hurd I have (it's the latest Debian GNU/Hurd release). Truthfully, I've never seen so many warnings before make cuts out. Having looked through the code for the error it reports last, my guess is that it's unable to include any of the .h files that are needed. They are supposed to be in "linux/blah.h" and, obviously, there's no such directory. Nor could I find the needed headers elsewhere on the system (module.h, kernel.h, config.h were the three I was browsing for - there are a number of others). So, what I need to know is if I've totally screwed up and should have tried something entirely different in the beginning or if I'm on the right track and I've just got the fight of my life ahead of me getting these things to compile. If getting these to compile is what I need to be doing, I could really use some pointers on where to get information about porting these kinds of things to the Hurd. As it is I'm in a bit over my head. In any case, thank you for your time!
