Agreed - in the meantime, just wanted to have the issue acknowledged
and put on the roadmap.

 This is a general problem with almost all the existing entries, and
 will have to await a future editing pass for solution.  For now I think
 it's more important to have consistent cues that users can recognize,
 even if they're not literally appropriate.

iproute2, ETH_P_ECHO, linux/if_ether.h

iproute2 compiles against 2.4.4 die.

But iproute2's lib/ll_proto.c  tries to use ETH_P_ECHO from
linux/if_ether.h, and that manifest constant has (recently ?)
been yanked?

radio-miropcm20.c compile barf [2.2.18pre15 / CONFIG_RADIO_MIROPCM20]

2000-10-14 Thread Jim Freeman


Because CONFIG_RADIO_MIROPCM20 requires CONFIG_ACI_MIXER to
successfully compile, I propose the attached patch.


If CONFIG_ACI_MIXER is not set, the compile barfs with:

cc -D__KERNEL__ -I/tmp/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 
-fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m386 -DCPU=386   
-c -o radio-miropcm20.o radio-miropcm20.c
In file included from radio-miropcm20.c:13:
../sound/lowlevel/miroaci.h:9: #error Compiling a driver that needs the ACI-mixer but 
without ACI-mixer support


Plus the comment at the top of drivers/char/radio-miropcm20.c states:

* This driver relies on the aci mixer (drivers/sound/lowlevel/aci.c)

Dunno how to fix, but using the attached minimal .config,
