Another one from Larry. I've advised him to join this list.

Thanks for everything. I was looking through you email and discovered the make kernel-links command had to be in root. I tried it and it worked. It made build directory but not the .config file. Could you send me a copy of your .config file. I΅m so close now I can taste it. Thanks again

Larry

You're not supposed to run that command.

I would advise at this point that you delete the v4l-dvb directory and pull in a fresh copy.

Then, only run these commands:

make menuconfig #(then immediately exit and let it save)
make -j4

The menuconfig target creates a .config file. The second make step compiles the code against it.

Be sure to run these as root or it will not work right.

I can't attach mine because it is outdated (my copy of the repository is pretty old).
