kdev_t changes cause NVdriver compile failure?

Post by Axel H. Siebenwirt » Fri, 11 Jan 2002 04:20:15



Hallo,

I have upgraded from 2.4.18pre1 to 2.5.2-pre10.
Now my NVdriver doesn't compile anymore. I know, you don't want to deal with
third-party object drivers.

My knowledge is poor, but by investigating through nv.c from
NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-2313 and linux kernel headers I found relations to kdev_t
and I also have seen that there have been changes in latest kernel
pre-patches.

Might this be related?

Thank you very much, I'm missing X very much:)

1. Linus BK: change to asm-i386/thread_info.h causes build failure: no TIF_USEDFPU

Linus,

Your change to includes/asm-i386/thread_info.h today causes the following
build failure.  I think more people were using the USEDFPU flag than you
thought (or the Changeset isn't complete).
