Thanks for your report.  Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to
testing on Ubuntu 9.10 yet, and I don't have a 64 bit machine
to test on, so I'm likely little help here.

I assume you meant 0.16.

You might check the debian target and see if the files ended up somewhere
else.  Are they under lib64 as Theodore suggested?

Barry doesn't build any kernel modules.  There is a berry_charge kernel
module, but that is part of the default kernel, and is not required
to use Barry.
