this helps, and i guess i can understand why, since it looks like that

Hi,
I tried compiling the latest kernel (2.4.9) in order to use linux keycodes
(which seems to be required as I updated XF86 from 4.0 to 4.1.)
During the kernel build, the compiler stopped with an error:
drivers/char/vt.c:507: 'kdb_rate' undeclared.
Examining the file vt.c, the segment of code
Is this the linux keycodes issue again? Can someone help me to write an
