I have recently downloaded the CVS version of i2c and lm_sensors. I wanted to implement the i2c and lm_sensors drivers for my hardware only into my kernel (2.4.22). After downloading both of these, performed the following cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.22 $I2C_PATH/mkpatch/mkpatch.pl $I2C_PATH . | patch -p1 $LM_SENSORS_PATH/mkpatch/mkpatch.pl $LM_SENSORS_PATH . | patch -p1 The patches seem to have succeeded. However, when I try to compile the kernel, I get the following error(s) -------------------------Begin cut here----------------------------------- make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/drivers/media/video' gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno- trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpref erred-stack-boundary=2 -march=athlon -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /usr/src/li nux-2.4.22/include/linux/modversions.h -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_ BASENAME=videodev -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c videodev.c gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno- trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpref erred-stack-boundary=2 -march=athlon -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /usr/src/li nux-2.4.22/include/linux/modversions.h -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_ BASENAME=bttv_driver -c -o bttv-driver.o bttv-driver.c gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno- trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpref erred-stack-boundary=2 -march=athlon -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /usr/src/li nux-2.4.22/include/linux/modversions.h -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_ BASENAME=bttv_cards -c -o bttv-cards.o bttv-cards.c gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno- trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpref erred-stack-boundary=2 -march=athlon -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /usr/src/li nux-2.4.22/include/linux/modversions.h -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_ BASENAME=bttv_if -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c bttv-if.c bttv-if.c:244: error: unknown field `inc_use' specified in initializer bttv-if.c:244: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type bttv-if.c:245: error: unknown field `dec_use' specified in initializer bttv-if.c:245: warning: missing braces around initializer bttv-if.c:245: warning: (near initialization for `bttv_i2c_adap_template.name') bttv-if.c:245: warning: initialization makes integer from pointer without a cast bttv-if.c:245: error: initializer element is not computable at load time bttv-if.c:245: error: (near initialization for `bttv_i2c_adap_template.name[0]') bttv-if.c:246: error: initializer element is not constant bttv-if.c:246: error: (near initialization for `bttv_i2c_adap_template.name') make[3]: *** [bttv-if.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/drivers/media/video' make[2]: *** [_modsubdir_video] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/drivers/media' make[1]: *** [_modsubdir_media] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/drivers' make: *** [_mod_drivers] Error 2 --------------------------End cut here------------------------------------ I do have a BTTV card and I was having it built into the kernel as well.
