Hi,

I'm back with another failure and fixes for both :-)

Turns out to be just like the "color" variable problem, video_size_row
is a macro. Here is a patch for both errors above.

 }

After fixing that one, I ran into one where the final link could 
not resolve virtual_fb_init in fbmem.o. Here is the patch for that.

Now I just need to try the new kernel....
