Bug Description

Binary package hint: mga-vid-source

while trying to build the mga_vid kernel module with modul-assistant the following build error occured

/usr/src/modules/mga-vid/mga_vid.c:45:26: error: linux/config.h: No such file or directory

a quick websearch resulted in this link http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=506363
and the dirty solution to touch the config.h
a longterm solution would be to remove the include stamenten from mga_vid.c

Confirming this after speaking with the developer and also the linux/config.h was dropped in the 2.6.19 kernel. For feisty this needs a simple patch to remove the '#include <linux/config.h>' in upstream/mga_vid.c and then an SRU filed.

Changed in mga-vid:
importance: Undecided → Medium
status: Unconfirmed → Confirmed
