sony-laptop.c doesn't compile with kernel 2.6.29

 

Hm - with kernel 2.6.29 I get:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.29/build

It seems some incompatible changes have been made in the acpi stuff. The
type "union acpi_operand_object" doesn't exist anymore (I did a grep -r
in /usr/include). Or am I missing some kernel setting?
