Here is my experience: Got linux-2.4.18 and patched it with patch-2.4.19-pre6. After that I patched it with 01-videodev-fix-2.4.19-pre4.diff and 03-v4l2-api-2.4.19-pre4.diff. It seems that vmalloc_to_page is already in the kernel (although declared slightly different), so I didn't put that patch in. Rebooted into the kernel and ksyms says: grep vmalloc_to_page /proc/ksyms c01213e8 vmalloc_to_page_R__ver_vmalloc_to_page That string looks somewhat different from the other function exports, but I haven't a clue why. Its exported gpl, though. When I try to insmod my video-buf.o (from bttv-0.8.38) I get unresolved symbol vmalloc_to_page. I have tried modutils 2.4.14 (from rpm) and modutils 2.4.15 (from kernel.org). Any clues anyone? I'm not used to posting here, so I might have missed something - sorry if that's the case. Thanks. /Allan Outlook, Internet Explorer and IIS stinks. The key to knowledge is not to rely on people to teach you it.
