crash exactly in the same way
The error is in line 40:CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="Currently, ati-drivers won't fully compile if you append anything to your version" This (') sign produce the error, but in the ati-drivers gentoo tutorial propos that. Just put this line 40:CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="" And remember not put ani strange sign ('¨·#?)....
Please, don't resolve bugs that are not fixed in CVS.
Don't put ' characters in your localversion. If this bothers you, you could try posting to the linux kernel mailing list about it.
