[Openvortex-dev] build problems on Debian Woody

[John Parejko]

Hello!  I've been listening to the traffic on this list for a while, and
figured it was time for me to give the drivers a go.  However, I can't
seem to build the latest CVS alsa from openvortex.

I'm running kernel 2.4.18 on Debian 3.0r1 (Woody), gcc 3.0.4.  when
building au88x0_game.c, it gives the following errors (oh, I couldn't find
anyone else who had this in the mailing list archives):

au88x0_game.c: In function `vortex_game_read':
au88x0_game.c:45: structure has no member named `driver'
au88x0_game.c: In function `vortex_game_trigger':
au88x0_game.c:50: structure has no member named `driver'
au88x0_game.c: In function `vortex_game_cooked_read':
au88x0_game.c:55: structure has no member named `driver'
au88x0_game.c: In function `vortex_game_open':
au88x0_game.c:68: structure has no member named `driver'
au88x0_game.c: In function `vortex_gameport_register':
au88x0_game.c:88: structure has no member named `driver'
make[2]: *** [au8810_game.o] Error 1

Checking /usr/src/linux/include/linux/gameport.h shows that it does in
fact not contain a member named 'driver'.  I can give a list of the
members of that structure, if needed, but 'driver' isn't one of them.

Ideas?  Do I need to run kernel 2.6?  I've seen other people's build
successes under 2.4.x.  What am I missing?

Thanks for the help.

John
