Hi Hugues,

Please read the INSTALL file under your click-1.4.3 directory:

"2. Get a vanilla Linux kernel source distribution from www.kernel.org
or
    one of its mirrors.  (Patched kernels, such as Red Hat kernels,
usually
    do not work.)  Unpack this distribution into /usr/src/linux.  (Save
the
    old kernel source tree, if you had one.)"

Regards

Beyers

Subject: [Click] 2.4.22 kernel patch ?


Hi all,

I'm using the UserLevel of "Click Modular Router" wich is not very
annoying 
for the moment. As I will pass in production work, I will need the 
"LinuxModule", but at the compilation, I received this message :

(...)
checking whether -fpermissive is required... yes
checking whether -fpermissive is allowed... no
configure: WARNING:
=========================================
 
Your Linux kernel header files cause errors when included by a C++
program,
so I won't try to compile the linuxmodule driver.
 
There are two common reasons for this error:
1. You have not applied the Linux kernel patch that comes with this
   distribution.  Apply the right patch and try again.
2. Your Linux configuration enables some functionality that is not yet
   covered by our patches.  Turn off this functionality and try again,
   or fix the error and tell us how you did it.  See the config.log file
   for more detailed information on the error.
 
=========================================
(...)

I'm trying to install "Click Modular Router" on a Fedora Core 1 (2.4.22)
but 
none of the patches coming with the distribution (click-1.4.3) are
applicable 
on this kernel version:
