Re: Errors compiling kernel-source-2.2.1 package

[Jake Griesbach <griesbac@gamera.colorado.edu>]

Sorry, I should have also mentioned that I get the same error compiling
both the 2.2.1 kernel and the 2.2.2 kernel.  For the 2.2.1 kernel I used
the debian kernel-source-2.2.1 package which (I think) has the neccessary
patches.
