Hi<br><br>Going back many years I have written software, built software systems,<br>etc. All my work was in Fortran with some custom assembly language<br>modules where I needed capabilities that Fortran didn't have. I don't
<br>know "C" or "C++".<br><br>I am trying to build the ivtv module for 2.6.16. I pulled in the<br>compressed module, unpacked it, and read the instructions. When I try<br>to run 'make' the system complains about errors on two lines which I
<br>beleive are 490 and 493. The error text is:<br><br> driver ivti-osd.c error - expected ) before string constant.<br><br>I looked at the text in vi and the parenthteses are balanced on those<br>lines. They read as:
<br><br>MODULE_PARM(ivtv_fb_card_id, "i");<br>MODULE_PARM(osd_init, "i");<br><br>I understand that utilities can loose line count - can someone help me<br>figure out where the problem is?<br><br>Thank you

I am not sure what version of ivtv you are trying to load but you may
want to try going back one version and see if you have any luck before
burning a lot of time on it.<br>
