1. emerge =sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.26
2. emerge =media-libs/svgalib-1.9.25

Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-07-17 21:14:32 UTC
I assume you also configured and built that kernel... Your steps to reproduce omit that information.
Comment 2 Marco Leogrande 2008-07-17 21:18:21 UTC
Yes, I have built the kernel before trying to reinstall svgalib. I forgot to explicitly write it, sorry about that.

change to kernel26compat.h

class_device_create has been removed in version 2.6.26
use device_create instead

Patch worked for me.

Excellent!

Thank you for your help.

The same here, error has gone.

Thank you!
Comment 9 Marco Leogrande 2008-07-26 09:13:04 UTC
The provided patch fixes compilation here too, thanks.
Anyway, I've not tested the library yet.
Comment 10 Brett Mravec 2008-07-27 00:49:09 UTC
(In reply to comment #6)

After further tests the patch only lets it compile, not work correctly.  Although a few of the programs that depend on it to build still seem to work correctly.

> After further tests the patch only lets it compile, not work correctly.

Can you please give some detail regarding the failure to work properly.

updated patch to kernel26compat.h

This patch allows the kernel module svgalib_helper to load.

Patch works svgalib_helper modprobes ok.

Once again thank you.
