It'd help if we could see some of the errors you got. You probably need
to actually build the kernel and modules...some 3rd party drivers need a
real kernel and not just the configured source:
# cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2 (See http://nel-2.ora-code.com).6.12/linux-2 (See http://nux-2.ora-code.com).6.12
# make bzImage;make modules
After that, your make command for the driver should work.
