Build errors with kernels 2.6.27 and higher e.g. BUG_TRAP etc.
Q: Trying to build element 3.x for one of the newer linux kernels, e.g. FC9 is at 2.6.27. The build dies while building LINX. This wasn't a problem with the older kernel?

A: There are several kernel changes in the newer kernels that impact LINX. These are fixed in linx-2.1.0.
- Download the tarball linx-2.1.0.tar.gz
- Place tarball into 3party/linx
- Change the build/versions.mk LINX_VERSION to point to the new release number
