Or use the following: --- linux-2.5.19-old/scripts/Makefile Wed May 29 20:42:56 2002 +++ linux/scripts/Makefile Wed May 29 21:46:58 2002 @@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ $(HOSTCC) $(HOSTCFLAGS) -o $@ $< split-include: split-include.c - $(HOSTCC) $(HOSTCFLAGS) -o $@ $< + $(HOSTCC) $(HOSTCFLAGS) -I $(HPATH) -o $@ $< # xconfig # --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I find it perfectly idiotic to tell people to use older kernel include. Better to tell them to use stable versions if they do not know what they do. I want applications to be build with the new kernel headers, including new API, especially when some aren't backward compatible, and I think I'm not alone. And the only way to find these is to symlink those headers to the utilised kernel release. Arnaud.
