include/asm/mpspec.h:6:25: mach_mpspec.h: No such file or directory

Missing file #1
Those two errors might be because of the missing file #1.

include/asm/smp.h:72:26: mach_apicdef.h: No such file or directory

Missing file #2

Should it be a files there? mga_vid for 2.6.11 compiles without problem and I
didnt put any file there when I compiled mga_vid-2.6.11.

In /lib/modules/2.6.10-1.770_FC3smp/build/include/asm I got these files

[***@flashdance asm]$ ll */mach_mpspec.h
-rw-r--r-- 3 root 145 Dec 24 22:35 mach-bigsmp/mach_mpspec.h
-rw-r--r-- 3 root 145 Dec 24 22:35 mach-default/mach_mpspec.h

shouldnt the correct file be used automagiclly?

However, mga-vid-2.6.11-2005-03-06.tar.gz will build just fine. But later it
wont work, probably because its not the right kernel :)

Actualy mga-vid-2.6.11-2005-03-06 should work with .10 kernels too, as
the only changes were either clean ups or removal of deprecated functions.

Ok. It doesnt... Im not in front of that computer now so I cant see the error
msg.

I'd guess that your kernel isn't correctly configured.
Try a vanilla kernel from kernel.org and tell me the results.

Ok, 2.6.11.6 then I guess.

Please note, that i don't have the time to support non-vanilla
kernels as i already lack the time to fully support the mainline.

Ok.

Please also note that there is a mplayer-matrox mailinglist
for anything related to mga_vid, you should subscripe and
send any further mails there.

I did that, they told me to mail you directly instead.
