Hello,
I got a problem proting device driver from 2.4 to 2.6, i.e. the asm/smplocak.h seems not in 2.6 kernel/include/asm, so could anyone help ?
Thanks

it looks like the "Big Kernel Lock" headers have been moved from <asm/smplock.h> to <linux/smp_lock.h> between 2.4 and 2.6 ... patching the #include directive did it for me, i guess it will do for you aswell.
