RE: writing driver code supporting multiple linux kernel versions

Hi,

I had tried the UTS_RELEASE but there were error that too many decimal
points....... on considering the kernel version as string also I was
getting unsupported token error.........

I had checked with LINUX_VERSION_CODE and KERNEL_VERSION macros.........
it is working perfectly.... thanx for the help....
