Drivers for 2.4 kernels?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I have an old system with a 2.4 kernel (and I unfortunately cannot
upgrade it) and a systar2 card.

The last released dvb drivers (linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1) compile well, but they
have knows bugs that (I think) have been fixed after the 1.1.1 release.
So, I tried to install some more recent drivers... But I did not manage
to find a recent snapshot of the drivers that compile with a 2.4 kernel.
I see that similar questions have been asked on this mailing list in the
past, but I did not find any definitive answer:
what's the latest version of the DVB drivers that can compile with a 2.4
kernel?


I downloaded today's hg snapshot, and I see that there is a
Makefile.kern24 file, so I hoped that it would compile... But this is
what I get:
scripts/make_makefile.pl /tmp/linux-2.4.32
creating symbolic links...
echo srcdir /tmp/linux-2.4.32
srcdir /tmp/linux-2.4.32
make -C /tmp/linux-2.4.32 SUBDIRS=/tmp/v4l-dvb-a3a095225de1/v4l CFLAGS="-I../linux/include -D__KERNEL__ -I/tmp/linux-2.4.32/include -DEXPORT_SYMTAB" modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/linux-2.4.32'
make -C  /tmp/v4l-dvb-a3a095225de1/v4l CFLAGS="-I../linux/include -D__KERNEL__ -I/tmp/linux-2.4.32/include -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /tmp/linux-2.4.32/include/linux/modversions.h" MAKING_MODULES=1 modules
make[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/v4l-dvb-a3a095225de1/v4l'
scripts/make_makefile.pl
make[2]: Nothing to be done for `modules'.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/v4l-dvb-a3a095225de1/v4l'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/linux-2.4.32'

and no .o file is created. I tried something like
make SRCDIR=/tmp/linux-2.4.32 allmodconfig
and I got
No version yet.
scripts/make_makefile.pl /tmp/linux-2.4.32
Creating Makefile.media.
Preparing to compile for kernel version 2.6.8
VIDEO_DEV requires version 2.6.12
VIDEO_V4L1 requires version 2.6.12
VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT requires version 2.6.12
VIDEO_V4L2 requires version 2.6.12
...


			Thanks,
				Luca
