I think the above is the problem - I ran into something similar with iscsitarget just recently. I had to amend each source module with "include <linux/module.h>". As far as I can tell, something in module management/building was changed in kernel 3.2.0. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (5.2°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
Thank you for answer. But I am not advanced user myself... How can I fix this problem... could you provide some solution or suggestions but in simple terms :). BR, Audrius On Mon, Feb 27, 2012 at 1:25 PM, Per Jessen <per@opensuse.org> wrote:

Hi Audrius You're using Tumbleweed, that's advanced stuff. :-) I don't think there is a simple way to fix it. An alternative might be to use an older openSUSE, perhaps just plain 12.1 instead of Tumbleweed. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (6.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

That is what I am thinking about :-). And I do not think that vmware workstation will work in my system... Am I right? BR, Audrius -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

With your current system+kernel, not without fixing the module sources, no. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thank you!!! I found only previous patch and that did not work... All compiled without error now. Just have to download images and try to use player. Hope that it will work nicely on SUSE. Thank you again! BR, Audrius On Mon, Feb 27, 2012 at 7:02 PM, Markus Koßmann <mkossmann_ml1@gmx.de> wrote:
