Hi! I tried to compile today's linux-2.4.0-test8. rtc.c has copy_to_user_ret untill, but new uaccess.h hasn't copy_to_user_ret. So I couldn't compile today's 2.4.0-test8. Kaoru ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/

Yes. While this one is easy to fix (see drivers/sbus/char/rtc.c), you should probably be grateful that it didn't work :-) I got it to compile and boot, and it destroyed 3MB worth of personal mail. There are reports by others on the linux kernel list about similar experiences. It is possible that the fix is a simple swap of "1" and "0" in fs/ext2/inode.c:all_zeroes(), but until this is confirmed, I for my part will stay at a safe distance from this version. -- Martin ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
