2.3.40 + offb.c problem

Hello,
I am trying to get the 2.3.X series running on my Apple Network Server. I
made a few changes to the patches that Scott Emji has been maintaining for
the 2.2.X series and applied them. One of those patches is a video driver
for the Cirrus 54m30 chip but that driver doesn't offer the full chip
functionality (i.e it can't do 1024x768 under linux). I noticed Jeff
Garzik wrote a driver that encompasses that chipset (among other Cirrus
chipsets) and decided to try and use that instead.
Compilation goes along happily until I get to the video driver
section. At that point, I get:
offb.c: In function `offb_init_driver':
offb.c:474: parse error before `{'
offb.c: At top level:
offb.c:479: parse error before `return'
which is the code section:
#ifdef CONFIG_FB_CLGEN
if ((!strncmp(dp->name, "MacPicasso",10) ||
(!strncmp(dp->name, "54m30",5)) {
clgen_of_init(dp);
return 1;
}
#endif /* CONFIG_FB_CLGEN */
This is with the Open Firmware framebuffer option checked in the kernel
configuration.
I'm more than a little green when it comes to kernel hacking but there
doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that code snippet. I thought at
first some of the changes I had made to incorporate the other cirrus54m30
driver were goofing things up so I grabbed a pristine source of 2.3.40 and
am still having the same problems.
Could someone point me in the right direction on this one?
Thanks,
Kevin
