hi kevin!

i've got problems to compile your files into my kernel!

got the new powerbook g4 with radeon in it
thought your sources could help me
but my make doesn't get enough informations from menuconfig for compiling the radeon sources
i use version 2.4.12 the only sources running on the powerbook
