I was not seeing the obvious and try that. _BUT_: 2.3 make xconfig looks
a lot different from 2.2 make xconfig.
The 2.3.51 make xconfig backported to 2.2.15 still omits the comments
that have got next to the "BT848 Video For Linux" configuration option,
while make config and make menuconfig still show them. Is that fixed in
2.3.99-pre3?
IF the configuration stuff in scripts/ has changed after 2.3.51, please
drop me a note, I will then update my patch.
Alan, are you willing to pull 2.3's menuconfig/xconfig into 2.2.15 in
spite of these problems to get rid of the possible compile problems
caused by misconfiguration?
The backport fixes the configuration problems causing build failure for
me.
If you're willing to accept the backport, find a diff attached (gzip
compressed). Note it also touches checkconfig.pl and ver_linux.
