They came straigt from linux-2.6.9rc1.
I realized that the cvs compiles fine with linux-2.4, but not the fbdev 
doesn't compile under 2.6.9rc1.

Hey Riley,

Did you ever get a chance to try that site we spoke about. I have been using it to get 
all of 
my R X needs from. Service was great, prices are outstanding.

Talk to you later.

rc1 inserts a pointer to kernel memory into the middle of the fb_monspecs 
structure. So, either more of linux/fb.h needs to bracketed with #ifndef 
__KERNEL__, or rc1 breaks userland binary compatibility (among other things). 
In both cases, this is a kernel issue.

Marc.
