Daniel,

Apart from the hacks you describe, you also need to
change "LINUXSRC" in the Makefile to:

        LINUXSRC=/usr/src/linux-2.4

This is the correct location for the kernel on RH8.0.

As shipped, the Makefile refers to the old location:

        LINUXSRC=/usr/src/linux

I've had vloopback & motion working fine here for over
a week on RH8.0

I hope this helps.
