Description skelter 2009-05-15 19:01:35 UTC 
Compile fails because _PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC is undelcared in alloc-r0drv-linux.c:138

There are several bugs which mention virtualbox-modules-1.6.6-r1 not compiling, but I did not see any mentioning this particular kernel.  For instance, bug 266468 mentions a slightly later kernel linux-2.6.29-gentoo.  That bug was marked resolved/fixed, though it was fixed by the user moving on to a modern version of VirtualBox, not by a patch, as far as I can tell.  

I was hesitant to unmask ~x86 of VirtualBox.  I'm running a lesser OS prone to disease on it and I'm concerned it'll have to reauthenticate...again.  Yeah, I know, forgive me; its for testing.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge virtualbox-modules 1.6.6-r1 while /usr/src/linux points to /usr/src/linux-2.6.28-gentoo-r8


Actual Results:  
Compile fails because _PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC is undelcared in alloc-r0drv-linux.c:138
