[MPlayer-matrox] RE: mga_vid for 2.6, first beta

[Andres Kärner]

Hi,

I'm using SuSE 9.1 on latest apt-get upgrade level and when I tried to compile 
mga-vid-2.6.9 then I get error:

andres at arvuti:~/install/mga-vid-2.6.9> make

I use SuSE latest kernel

Can someone provide some help on this?

I tried to compile mga_vid what is included in MPlayer-1.0pre6a/drivers but 
this gave also errors...
