Subject: RE: a problem compiling modules with kernel 2.4.18-3 on redhat 7. 3


Hi, thank you very much for your assistance. I went through the suggested
steps, but now I have another problem.
"make modules" fails in compiling our source. The fact is that our source
did not chage since successful compilation on kernel 2.4.7-10 and redhat
7.2.
So, searching for what has been change between the 2 kernels, this is what I
found.
First, the failure occurs on a line trying to assign to current->nice on our
source code and the error states:
Structure has no member named nice.
Now: "current" points to task_struct structure defined in
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/sched.h.
On kernel 2.4.7-10 this structure did have a member named"nice', but now it
is omitted. There are probably other modifications to this structure.
Can anybody tell me how to modify our source code to meet these
modifications, or point me to a documentation, or website dealing with this
issue?
Thanks, Rafi.

"Mr. Proper makes cleaner than clean" or something like that was the slogan 
that is behind the "mrproper" option. It cleans also anything left alone by 
"make clean", e.g. your .config file.

You have to configure again after "make mrproper".
