tgafb broken in 2.6test9 compile

[Dan Field]

Hi.

I'm trying to compile 2.6.0test9 and ran into the following error:

make[1]: `arch/alpha/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.
  CHK     include/linux/compile.h
    CC      drivers/video/tgafb.o
    drivers/video/tgafb.c:83: `tgafb_pci_unregister' undeclared here
    (not in a function)
    drivers/video/tgafb.c:83: initializer element is not constant
    drivers/video/tgafb.c:83: (near initialization for
    `tgafb_driver.remove')
    drivers/video/tgafb.c:84: initializer element is not constant

    drivers/video/tgafb.c:233: (Each undeclared identifier is reported
    only once

    make[2]: *** [drivers/video/tgafb.o] Error 1
    make[1]: *** [drivers/video] Error 2
    make: *** [drivers] Error 2
    


I tried adding #include <linux/selection.h> as pointed out at the
following URL

http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0309.2/0027.html

but then got this:

make[1]: `arch/alpha/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.

    make: *** [drivers] Error 2

Tgafb wasn't converted to the new fbdev frame work yet. It should be fixed in
James Simmons' tree:

    bk://fbdev.bkbits.net/fbdev-2.5

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
