Re: fbbsrc.704r5 compile error

Jose,

Stack protection was added after 2.6.16. I first encountered it 
somewhere after 2.6.18, possibly in 2.6.22 but my memory is dim.

There are advantages in moving to a newer kernel and that will fix your 
current problem, but you'll possibly run into stack smashing with xfbb, 
and it won't run.

Bernard F6BVP is working on the xfbb code to eliminate some problems. 
Some users are having success with Bernard's later releases but on my 
Debian 4.0 system (2.6.28) I still have to compile fbb with 
-fno-stack-protection. I have the same issue on another system running 
Debian 4.0 with kernel 2.6.29-6. Both systems run fbb 7.04s-test.

If you really need to stick with that old kernel you might get away with 
commenting out the -DPROTOTYPES line. That's what I would try, but be 
warned, I'm not a programmer.

Bernard is across this list and may make comment.
