Vaguely possible. However, my guess would be that you've changed the
branch you're pulling the sources from, or the kernel configuration, or
both. The vt driver is fairly new, so you need a reasonably recent 10.x
or higher source tree to have it available.
So: my advice.
(1) check what you have for sources: "svn info" will tell you, and "svn
status" will tell you if you have changed any files in the
tree. Look at the output carefully for hints of problems. If svn
reports problems with its database, try "svn cleanup".
(2) If your svn tree isn't tracking the branch that you intend to, fix
that. It looks like stable/10 or mainline head are good targets
for using the vt console device right now, although I may well be
wrong on that.
(3) Try building the GENERIC and VT kernels rather than your custom
kernel. If they build, then your custom kernel configuration is the
problem, and you can either reconfigure that or just use one of the
standard ones you just built. If they don't build, you will at
least get much clearer indications of the problem. [Don't use -j
with the make command.]
(4) Make sure you're following the recommended upgrade path.
I probably could have been a lot more help if you'd included the output
of "uname -a" and "svn info" in your message. And your kernel
configuration file, although even better than that would be trying the
GENERIC configuration and showing the results of that.
Good luck.
