Well, this is a bit strange. I'm guessing a bit now:
The offending lines in your example result from adriver.h defining
things for some kernel versions, including kernel 2.4.22.
For example the error regarding PDE:
/home/ric/alsa-driver-0.9.7c/include/adriver.h:134: error:
redefinition of `PDE
'/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2097.nptl/build/include/linux/proc_fs.h:17:
error: `PDE' previously defined here
This means, that somewhere in "include/linux/proc_fs.h" the name PDE
is already defined. In adriver.h ALSA tries to define it on its own
like this:
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 5, 4)
#include <linux/fs.h>
static inline struct proc_dir_entry *PDE(const struct inode *inode)
{
...
#endif
The strange thing is, that in my rather vanilla version of kernel
2.4.22 there is no such thing as PDE in include/linux/*:
$ grep PDE /usr/src/linux/include/linux/proc_fs*
$ (nothing here)
So I suspect, but I can only guess here, that your kernel source has a
patch that introduces this PDE thing (I have no idea what it could be
used for).
I don't know if ALSA could fix that at all. It might be, that if
Fedora ships a custom Linux kernel source, they should also provide
adapted ALSA-sources.
ciao
