error: 'uint8_t' has not been declared

Question

I'm trying to use an xbox360 controller as a joystick in openSUSE 11.2. When attempting to compile xboxdrv (http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/) I get the following errors:

g++ -o src/xbox_controller.o -c -g -O2 -Wall -ansi -pedantic src/xbox_controller.cpp

scons: *** [src/xbox_controller.o] Error 1

scons: building terminated because of errors.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Answer 1

Edit src/xbox_controller.hpp, add missing #include <stdint.h> to it (somewhere near the beginning).
