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

[iocc@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?

Ok, 2.6.11.6 then I guess.
