It seems you lack basic knowledge about unix shells. You can redirect
("catch") the output of any command to a file and view it later.
In bash, you would use this:

$ make -C drivers 2>&1 | tee build.log

See `man bash' and `man tee' for more information.

Yes, we tried and yes, it should work. I don't have a voodoo card, but
nvidia vidix driver works fine here. It's a matter of having the correct
kernel headers in the right place.
