Julien, Seeing your mail, I too tried to compile Sane under Suse 10.2 -- and got the same error message. HZ should be defined somewhere in the "kernel-related" header files, and theoretically the right header file should be included in sg.h , because HZ is used there too. You can fix the error by adding the line #include <linux/compiler.h> to sanei/sanei_scsi.c, near line 89: #if defined (HAVE_SCSI_SG_H) # define USE LINUX_INTERFACE #include <linux/compiler.h> # include <scsi/sg.h> #elif defined (HAVE__USR_SRC_LINUX_INCLUDE_SCSI_SG_H) # define USE LINUX_INTERFACE #include <linux/compiler.h> # include "/usr/src/linux/include/scsi/sg.h" (better add the line two times, as shown: I don't know, which variant will be used on your system). Out of curiosity, I compiled sane-backends 1.0.18 on Ubuntu 6.10 -- no problems there. Suse 10.2 uses a slightly newer kernel version (2.6.18) than Ubuntu 6.10 (2.6.17). Does anybody know, if "something serious" changed in the "kernel related" header files between these versions? Or is this a problem specific for Suse 10.2? Abel
