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):

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

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

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 :confused:

Thanks anyway...
