After you install package with pacman -U pkgname, type
to load module. Is it working?

Hm.. for me it compiled in seconds, must be those wrong links - that is only change I made
in this newer kernel. Did you try stifiling's advice: | Code: |
ln -s /usr/src/linux-3.6.8 /lib/modules/3.6.8/build
ln -s /usr/src/linux-3.6.8 /lib/modules/3.6.8/source |

anikin,
do:
| Code: | rm -rf /lib/modules/3.6.8/build
ln -s /usr/src/linux-3.6.8 /lib/modules/3.6.8/build |
and then try makepkg --asroot

the package is created and somewhere on your computer. where it is though...i don't know. u'd have a better idea of narrowing down exactly where the .pkg.tar.xz file created to. after you pinpoint it's location though, u'd run the command
| Code: | | pacman -U /path/to/eeepc-linux.pkg.tar.xz |
i'm thinking it created to somewhere in the eeepc-linux folder that you ran the 'makepkg --asroot' command from, or maybe somewhere in the /tmp folder.

One last remaining issue. Can't load it yet.
| Code: | [root@archpup ~]# modprobe asus_eee
modprobe: FATAL: Module asus_eee not found.

Sorry, I forgot to change install directory, so open PKGBUILD and change last line, this:
| Code: | | install -Dm644 $srcdir/asus_eee-$pkgver/asus_eee.ko $pkgdir/usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/acpi/asus_eee.ko || return 1 |
with this
| Code: | | install -Dm644 $srcdir/asus_eee-$pkgver/asus_eee.ko $pkgdir/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/acpi/asus_eee.ko || return 1 |
Repeat everything
| Code: | pacman -R eeepc-linux
makepkg --asroot
pacman -U eeepc-linux-0.39a1-8-i686.pkg.tar.xz |
and then it will work.

Redone.
It loads without a hitch and is working now. Sweet. Although, these 2 lines don't look good - should I be concerned? And there's no directory '/etc/modules-load.d', let alone 'asus_eee.conf' file. Should I create them?

if it's working fine then just ignore that. one thing u might want to do though is edit the /etc/rc.d/MODULESCONFIG file and add the module to the addlist line to look like this:
ADDLIST=' asus_eee '
that pretty much does the same thing as:
without you having to manually do it every reboot.

Using wvdial for internet connection, required 2 steps,
(not unique to ArchPup):
rm /var/lock
then
mkdir /var/lock
(if the first lock is a file, not a folder)
Evidently wvdial wants to make it's own lock file,
and needs a lock folder to put it in, and if not found,
constantly seeks it, /dev/ttyACM0 used by some usb modems
will then report the device is busy.
Copy or create /etc/wvdial.conf
Thanks Simargl, for adding this crucial piece of net connectivity!

ciento, I'm glad that you got it to work. /var/lock was pointing to non-existing folder /run/lock, so I edited build script to make that folder and problem is now solved.
darkcity, also there is template PKGBUILD in /usr/share/pacman, so making new one will be easier.
