Yes, the package is at any time build for openSUSE 11.1 (based on 2.6.27) and openSUSE Factory (11.2 to be). It was 2.6.29 until just a day ago and it built, the 2.6.30 landed and I got the build failures. >> for now I see it failing with: >> sing 2.6.x kernel build system. >> CC [M] /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/linux/block.o >> In file included from > /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/linux/vmblockInt.h:40 > , >> from > /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/linux/block.c:30: >> > /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/include/vm_basic_type > s.h:145:7: warning: "__FreeBSD__" is not defined > > This is weird.

I think I posted at least three more lines of errors log, showing the error: /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/include/vm_basic_types.h:145:7: warning: "__FreeBSD__" is not defined /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/linux/control.c: In function 'SetupProcDevice': /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/linux/control.c:159: error: 'struct proc_dir_entry' has no member named 'owner' /usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/linux/control.c:171: error: 'struct proc_dir_entry' has no member named 'owner' make[3]: *** [/usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmblock/linux/control.o] Error 1 So the real error is in control.c, lines 159 and 171, where the structure proc_dir_entry seems no longer to contain an 'owner'.
