[vdr] compiling vdr 0.98

["Alessio Sangalli" <alesan@manoweb.com>]

HI, I'm trying to compile vdr 0.98. I can load the driver and use tuxzap to 
tune channles, watching sat-tv on a v4linux interface on my monitor or in an 
external tv with the composite output.
 

I have DVB under /usr/src and the same dor VDR:
[root@thor src]# pwd
/usr/src
[root@thor src]# ls
linux-2.4.7-10     vdr-0.98.tgz      redhat
DVB      siemens_dvb-0.9.3.tar.gz    linux
VDR 

I enter in VDR, for now I'm not interested in DVD (even if I have one, I 
will try it later): 

[root@thor src]# cd VDR/
[root@thor VDR]# make
g++ -g -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -m486 -c -DREMOTE_KBD -D_GNU_SOURCE 
 -I../DVB/ost/include config.c
In file included from config.h:17,
                from config.c:10:
dvbapi.h:86: syntax error before `;'
make: *** [config.o] Error 1
[root@thor VDR]# 

I can't figure out what this could be. I haven't founf anything looking in 
the mailing list archive, not dejanews or google. 

I use:# gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/specs
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98) 

is perhaps this so controversial version (2.96) of the compiler? what should 
I do, install another Linux distribution!? (in every case, I accept 
suggestoin about which distribution should be better for embedded use...) 


Thank you
