[Alsa-user] alsa 1.0.11rc3 rhel4 2.6.9-34.EL

[Wayne Huang]

i'm trying to build a new version of alsa (1.0.11rc3 but i also tried 1.0.10 stable) for a rhel4 workstation (to enable ca0106) and it builds okay with the rhel4u2 kernel (2.6.9-22.0.2.EL) but there is an issue when building against 2.6.9-34.EL.  the first issue is that gfp_t seems to be defined in 2.6.9-34 even though include/adriver.h declares it for all versions < 2.6.14. i commented out the include/adriver.h declaration and get a bit further but it still dies.  this is on x86_64.  has anyone seen this problem?  thanks in advance for your help.

here's the output:
