David> I cannot get 1.3.77 to compile past ppp.c... I have ppp
I had this problem and thought I might have missed/messed-up a patch
or something - so rather than hack about I got the entire source-tree
and it all compiled just fine.

Can you post a log of errors that you get when you try to compileQuote:>I cannot get 1.3.77 to compile past ppp.c...

The problem is not with the Linux kernel. The drivers in the 1.3.77
kernel have been corrected to not use u_int32_t. They now use __u32
instead which is defined in the linux/types.h include file.
The problem is not with the ppp code. (I am sorry, but it truly isn't.)
The problem is that many people have old versions of the libc include files.
You should do one of two things to correct the problem:
1. Upgrade the libc package and the include files to the latest ELF versions,
or,
2. Edit the file /usr/include/sys/types.h. Add the statement
#include <sys/bitypes.h>
after the statement
#include <linux/types.h>
since this will bring the types.h file up to the current revisions.
