Dear X friends: I got some error while using kernel 2.6.8.3 to compile XFree86 4.3.0.1, and I got the same problem as http://www.mail-archive.com/xfree86@xxxxxxxxxxx/msg08116.html But what make me confused is in lnx_io.c there are already some macros to prevent such things happen, like #include <linux/kd.h> #include <linux/version.h> #if defined(LINUX_VERSION_CODE) && defined(KERNEL_VERSION) # if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,5,42) # define rate period # endif #endif Since I am afraid of where the error comes from may be the include path, I also add "/usr/include" where LINUX_VERSION_CODE and KERNEL_VERSION locate in Imakefile as you can see it seems take effect from the gcc compile options below, but I am still stuck at the same place. I know if I rudely change the name of the parameter to meet the kernel's requirement, the error will vanish. But I really think it may not be the proper way to compile XFree86. If anyone has the same experience before or I omit setting something correctly, please let me know. Appreciate your help in advance, cckuo make[6]: Entering directory `/media/usb1/HP741_XFree86_with_modify_4_3/4.3.0.1/xc_patched/programs/Xserv er/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux' rm -f lnx_io.o gcc -m32 -c -O2 -fno-strength-reduce -ansi -pedantic -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs -Wundef -fno-merge-constants -I../../../../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common -I../../../../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support -I. -I../../../../../../programs/Xserver/include -I../../../../../../exports/include/X11 -I../../../../../../include/extensions -I../../../../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/shared -I/usr/include -I../../../../../.. -I../../../../../../exports/include -Dlinux -D__i386__ -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_XOPEN_SOURCE -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DSHAPE -DXINPUT -DXKB -DLBX -DXAPPGROUP -DXCSECURITY -DTOGCUP -DXF86BIGFONT -DDPMSExtension -DPIXPRIV -DPANORAMIX -DRENDER -DRANDR -DGCCUSESGAS -DAVOID_GLYPHBLT -DPIXPRIV -DSINGLEDEPTH -DXFreeXDGA -DXvExtension -DXFree86LOADER -DXFree86Server -DXF86VIDMODE -DXvMCExtension -DSMART_SCHEDULE -DBUILDDEBUG -DXResExtension -DX_BYTE_ORDER=X_LITTLE_ENDIAN -DNDEBUG -DFUNCPROTO=15 -DNARROWPROTO -DHAS_MTRR_SUPPORT -DUSESTDRES -DHAVE_SYSV_IPC lnx_io.c lnx_io.c: In function 'KDKBDREP_ioctl_ok': lnx_io.c:95: error: 'struct kbd_repeat' has no member named 'rate' lnx_io.c:103: error: 'struct kbd_repeat' has no member named 'rate' lnx_io.c:105: error: 'struct kbd_repeat' has no member named 'rate' lnx_io.c:106: error: 'struct kbd_repeat' has no member named 'rate' lnx_io.c:107: error: 'struct kbd_repeat' has no member named 'rate' make[7]: *** [lnx_io.o] Error 1 make[7]: Leaving directory `/media/usb1/HP741_XFree86_with_modify_4_3/4.3.0.1/xc_patched/programs/Xserv er/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux' make[6]: *** [linux] Error 2 _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
