VIA CN700 video driver FC4 kernel 2.6.17.11


I have a FC4 distro that I have upgraded the kernel to a vanilla 2.6.17.11, because of compilation problems for a DVB card.

I have a VIA CN700 board. The video drivers are now broken. I am trying to compile their supplied FC4 drivers (P4M800CE-P4M800Pro-CN-CLEXF40063-kernel-src_20051215.tgz) under the ne kernel. I am getting the below error when compiling:
