So I _never_ use 'make install'. My way[tm]: - cd v4l-dvb/v4l - make - load driver using 'make insmod' or some other script... You may edit insmod.sh to load only the modules you need. Or use a script of your own. @all: Why the hell does a simple 'make' in the v4l-dvb main directory execute as 'make install' in the v4l-dvb/v4l dir? Imho install should _never_ happen automatically. - make in the main dir should do a make in v4l - make install in the main dir should do a make install in v4l. Just my 2 cents.
