I can't compile neither i2c neither lm-sensors


Hi guys,

I've a problem compiling i2c, and the same problem with lm-sensors. The make output is this one (i only include the last part with the error):

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

juan@linux:/almacen/Drivers/i2c/i2c-2.8.4> make
gcc -DMODVERSIONS -include /lib/modules/2.4.21-202-athlon/build/include/linux/mo

kernel/i2c-philips-par.c:151: error: (near initialization for `bit_lp_data2.time out')
make: *** [kernel/i2c-philips-par.o] Error 1

----------------------------------------------------

The error translation is something like: "error: the initialicer item isn't constant"

I'm using a Suse 9.0 with a 2.4 kernel. Someone knows what is wrong?

Thanks for all,

I have fond the problem.

There's some problem with HZ macro, from <asm/param.h>. I have replaced all the HZ references with its numeric value (1000 in my asm/param.h) and i finally compiled i2c and lm-sensors.

Someone know why i have this problem???? It's a bit confusing

Thanks anyway...
