Hi!

As seeing all the posts about errors when compiling the
current mdk kernel source I was carefully enough not to
make clean before compiling the kernel but only a clean

make dep bzImage modules modules_install

In the modules part I still get an error:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.17-18mdk/include  -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes 
-Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe 
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=athlon  -DMODULE  -DKBUILD_BASENAME=tridentfb  -c 
-o tridentfb.o tridentfb.c
tridentfb.c:524:2: #error "Floating point maths. This needs fixing before the driver 
is safe"

But the diffs to the original config (from kernel source, I did not download
any binary kernel) show me:

@@ -1740,21 +1592,35 @@
 CONFIG_FB_SIS_315=y
 CONFIG_FB_3DFX=m
 CONFIG_FB_VOODOO1=m
-# CONFIG_FB_TRIDENT is not set
+CONFIG_FB_TRIDENT=m
 # CONFIG_FB_VIRTUAL is not set
 CONFIG_FBCON_SPLASHSCREEN=y

So it seems mdk kernel disabled trident fb. I do that as well, but don't
know if anyone needs that.

I admit, I still have the original mdk 8.1 gcc/glibc. Don't know if that
is the problem though

Regards,

Reinhard
