Trouble compiling driver in PClinuxOS
Greetings all,
I am having trouble compiling the latest v4l-dvb in order to get my pinnicale pci card to work. I am running PClinuxOS 2007. I have downloaded the latest tree, mkdir v4l-dvb extracted the tz file to that folder, went into root mode and got this error when I make the file
make -C /home/ed/v4l-dvb/v4l
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ed/v4l-dvb/v4l'
creating symbolic links...
Kernel build directory is /lib/modules/2.6.18.8.tex5/build
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18.8.tex5/build SUBDIRS=/home/ed/v4l-dvb/v4l modules make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.18.8.tex5'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ed/v4l-dvb/v4l'
I know this driver works because I had it running under ubuntu, but I heard so much about PClinuxOS that I thought I would give it a shot.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Ed

Also note that, as shown in the instructions, you should be building as "user" (denoted by the $ .... i.e. "$ make" ), then install as "root" (which, in the instructions, is achieved through "sudo make install" ...... if the instructions called for being the root user all along, then the cli prompt would be denoted by a #, and there would, of course, be no need for the use of a "sudo" .... sudo allows one to invoke the superuser's privileges in respect to performing some command i.e. "sudo command".
In any regard, building as root user will generally work, BUT you are exposing yourself to the risk/potential of introducing system changes that could very easily vary from being entirely benign to entirely destabilizing ... [dirty harry mode] being that this is root, the most powerful user in the Linux world, and will blow your installation clean off, you gotta ask yourself a question --- do I feel lucky? .... Well do you punk?[/dirty harry mode]

This same error occurs with CentOS 5.1 i386 (32-bit). Solution can be found from:
