RHEL 5.5 seems to have backported the strict_strtoul function to 2.6.18. You should be able to fix that by editing v4l/compat.h and removing the strict_strtoul definition. Several other functions could have been backported as well. If so you will need to modify v4l/compat.h accordingly. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart _______________________________________________ Linux-uvc-devel mailing list Linux-uvc-devel@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/linux-uvc-devel
