Missing kernel modules tree

Support AUR
1

The actual problem :
I have a huion tablet (2020 Kamvas 22), and everything works, except for it maps the tablet area across all screens, the usual shortcut (meta ctrl number) didn’t work to remap it to a screen and the graphic tablet settings dont do anything either. So following this redit post i tried using the newset drivers possible https://www.reddit.com/r/huion/comments/hiz1u6/my_experience_with_the_kamvas_13_2020_on_linux/

But when I tried to install the git version of this driver :
AUR (en) - digimend-kernel-drivers-dkms-git / GitHub - DIGImend/digimend-kernel-drivers: DIGImend graphics tablet drivers for the Linux kernel

it either failed on Missing kernel modules tree or make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'modules'.. I do have the linux-headers installed for my kernel (I did restart after installing the linux510 headers)

pacman -Q | grep headers
linux-api-headers 5.8-1
linux510-headers 5.10.7-3

I am not sure what I am doing wrong …

Make sure you are really running kernel 5.10.

Try

sudo pacman -Syu dkms base-devel --needed

Kernel should be correct

uname -r
5.10.2-2-MANJARO

It tries to install them for 5.4 as well … ?

This time it ran better ?

The dkms alpm hook will try to install the module for all kernel version available, so you should install the headers for all installed kernel versions to avoid build failures.

I am not sure how to install multiple versions, running sudo pacman -S linux-header just reinstalls them

sudo pacman -Syu linux54-headers linux510-headers, etc. If you use a metapackage, like linux-latest, etc., then use linux-latest-headers.

Or

sudo pacman -S $(ls /boot | awk -F "-" '/^linux/ { print $1"-headers" }')

This should cover all needed headers.
