Hi,

I've tried to install the new Kyro-Drivers BETA2 from source. But when he starts compiling I get following error:

cc -O2 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -DLINUX -DGCC_IA32 -Idrm -c -o module_drm.o module_drm.c
In file included from module_drm.c:69:
drm/pvr_drm_vm.h: In function `powervr_vm_shm_nopage':
drm/pvr_drm_vm.h:138: structure has no member named `virtual'
make: *** [module_drm.o] Error 1

Is it my false, or is it a general gentoo problem? (How to solve)

Many greetings from Germany!
Julian

Have you checked whether DRI/DRM support is in your kernel (under the 'Character devices section')?

I've compiled it in the kernel.
I get the drivers compiling by commenting the part where the error occurs, but X won't start with them,

I guess you have to have drm_o support because if you check the file under drm/drm_o(something), this file deals with the memory support soo... I've tried to compile with drm support but i guess i'll have to compile them as modules instead of built in the kernel.... hmm, if i check the section about dri i can only see certain graphic cards support lika voodoo and geforce i've tried to compile with only sis but it doesnt work... Please help me, should i try to download a more stable kernel and try with that??

I've recompiled my entire Gentoo-System (because of the unstable Konqueror) and with the xfs-kernel-sources the Kyro Drivers works perfectly! I'll try to make a working ebuild-script (c:

Hi,

I compiled my Kernel with enabled DRI and DRM.
And then I just did a 'make install' in the powervr directory.
Only thin I changed to get it work is the Kernel. (xfs-sources)

The xfs-sources is the Kernel with XFS-support. Gentoo/Portage Kernel-Layout changed, there are now gentoo-sources, without XFS-support and xfs-sources with XFS-Support.
So emerge sys-kernel/xfs-sources (if you use XFS) and recompile your kernel!

So, anyone got this to work with the newest gentoo-sources? I'm getting the same drm module errors as everyone, both using the src.rpm and the tgz.

I've compiled the gentoo-sources kernel with dri support and drm support (older, not drm 4.1)

Still the same problem. I couldn't find any info on this at google groups either (bummer).


Anyone have any help they could offer?

Hello everyone. You might be happy to hear that I got the kyro drivers working with gentoo-sources (2.4.19-r7).

sorry for my long answer delay... But I had have very less time to look here.
I don't know exactly, how I get it working, but I think I compiled DRM in kernel and then just made a 'make install' with the Kyro-Drivers.
I can test this anymore, because I have a new graphics-card. A Creative 3D Blaster 4 Ti 4200! Very nice especial with two monitors connected!
