Well, one anyway

My guess is that there is an undeclared identifier and that you need to
see what the readme has to say about it

ICBW, but it looks to me like this is expecting an integer of the
default length for a 32 bit system. However, since it is only a
warning, it would not appear to be a show stopper

On the other hand, not declaring an identifier would seem to be a bit of
a show stopper Sad

So what did the readme have to say?

Did you try out their recommendations?

some guys told that 2.6.16 can't compile 8.24 ati drivers, could it be the
main point?

You can't manage to compile when you *haven't* read their readme, the
error message tells you to read the readme, but you know better? Give
me a break!

I ASSURE YOU, the problem is not the readme, I already tried with all
methods, also spoke with the ati developer via msn, with no lucky. He
admitted himself that those driver sux....

You asked for help, but are unwilling either to do what the error
message says or to publish the relevant part of the information and say
why *you* have found it to be wrong.

Welcome to my killfile.
