Hi...

I have an old Intel graphics driver (for the US15W chipset) which does not compile in kernel 2.6.27.x kernel.

One of the offending lines deals with 'change_page_attr'.

I have not found documentation on the subject, or a work around, etc. I wonder if you know of a pointer to places that talks about this? Thanks.

Regards...

Hi,

I tried to compile the drivers from scratch and succeeded. I was mainly exchanging
change_page_attr(..., PAGE_KERNEL_NOCACHE);
with
set_pages_uc(...);
and
change_page_attr(..., PAGE_KERNEL)
with
set_pages_wb(...);

Furthermore I commented out all global_flush_tlb function calls, which I found was also done in a patch to get the fglrx driver to get compiled with recent kernel versions. I still don't know if this is a good thing to do or if one has to find a replacement for this. In pci.c the .nopage function pointer has to be changed to .fault but also the underlying function has to be changed accordingly I guess.

However, although I could compile it I could not manage to get the driver loaded without returning a sementation fault.

Did you succeed in building a driver for your platform?
