Re: quick fix for building nvidia xfree4 drivers on kernel 2.4.0-test11



If the Makefile was written well, it will be simple. Open the Makefile
with your favorite editor (vim is mine! :) and look for lines similar to
-DSOMETHING. Add the -DKERNEL_2_3 bit to this line.

Or, if there isn't something that looks right, see if there is a CCFLAGS
line -- and add the -DKERNEL_2_3 flag there.

HTH :)
