[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] mga_vid and linux kernel 2.6

[Shachar Raindel]

Hi,
  MOD_XXX_USE_COUNT has been removed in the 2.6 series (see
http://lwn.net/Articles/22197/ ). I haven't looked in the patch, but
if it doesn't protect these lines with precompiler #if about the
kernel version.

   Cheers,
   Shachar
