Package: linux-source-2.6.15
Version: 2.6.15-4

If you select the new megaraid drivers using "make menuconfig", it includes
the appropriate definitions in the .config file : MEGARAID_MM=y and
MEGARAID_MBOX=y.

However, the makefile is done in such a way that it requires that a symbol
MEGARAID_NEWGEN=y is also in the .config to compile and include these
drivers.

I could successfully build a working kernel by modifying the Kconfig file
and creating the option. It is all it takes to make the compiled kernel
include the megaraid "2" drivers and work. (tested on a dell 2850) However
since I'm not confident with my patch, I'll let you find out how this shall
be done.

Regards

Fabrice SEGURA
