By the way, did you get the kernel module to compile? Here it dumps on some
kernel-side includes... Apparently there's something wrong with my
/usr/include/linux/fs.h which isn't needed by the driver at all, AFAIK, but it
gives me errors on parsing this file...
More info: I use a regular 2.2.14 kernel (not the one on the mandrake CD, but
the one from kernel.org). I custom-built, compiled and installed it. The box is
a dual celeron 500 one, running an SMP-kernel.
A little excerpt (or however one spells that) from the errors:
/usr/include/linux/fs.h:262,
from /usr/include/linux/capability.h:13,
from /usr/include/linux/binfmts.h:5,
from /usr/include/linux/sched.h:8,
from /usr/include/linux/mm.h:4,
from nv.c:58:
/usr/include/linux/hpfs_fs_i.h:5: parse error before `ino_t'
/usr/include/linux/hpfs_fs_i.h:5: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union
/usr/include/linux/hpfs_fs_i.h:12: parse error before `:'
etc...
