emgd-dkms fails to build on lucid

[TomekN]

I was trying to install the emgd driver in Ubuntu 10.04 using the script 'emgd-lucid.sh'.
While building 'emgd-dkms' I got an error saying:

  /var/lib/dkms/emgd/1.5.15.3082/build/emgd/gmm/gtt.c: In function ‘invalidate_vma’:
  /var/lib/dkms/emgd/1.5.15.3082/build/emgd/gmm/gtt.c:135: error: ‘struct mm_struct’ has no member named ‘_MM_FILEPAGES’
  make[2]: *** [/var/lib/dkms/emgd/1.5.15.3082/build/emgd/gmm/gtt.o] Error 1
  make[1]: *** [_module_/var/lib/dkms/emgd/1.5.15.3082/build] Error 2
  make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-24-generic'
  make: *** [modules] Error 2

The problem occurs with both kernel versions: 2.6.32-24 and the latest 2.6.32-28.

It would be great to have the emgd working on lucid, since it's the LTS edition.

After reading this

I changed the MM_FILEPAGES to file_rss and did a manual make.

That was a really bad idea. X is now crasing repeatedly.

Hi, Will.

Unfortunately I haven't prepared for lucid partitions in my anther VAIO P yet.
so for a few days I could check this issues on my environments... I hope.

and hopefully could you attach your recent make.log here ?
Best Regards.

Hi, Will.

now we had solved this issue. newly patched emgd-dkms had updated.

I wrote 2 patches for emgd.ko. and maybe you might need some xorg-input packages from X-edgers.
Luca would fix this dependencies.
see details in above link.

Regards.

Hi Tista.

Thanks ever so much. I`ll install and test that this afternoon.
Thanks again
