Brandon,
VIDEO_CX18 selects VIDEO_TUNER , but you chose the option,
"MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE" , which turns off the automatic tuner dependency
selections. Please note the description of this option:
menuconfig MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE
bool "Customize analog and hybrid tuner modules to build"
depends on MEDIA_TUNER
help
This allows the user to deselect tuner drivers unnecessary
for their hardware from the build. Use this option with care
as deselecting tuner drivers which are in fact necessary will
result in V4L/DVB devices which cannot be tuned due to lack of
driver support
If unsure say N.
We allow users to disable certain modules if they think they know
better, and choose to compile out drivers that they don't need. You
should not have disabled tuner-simple -- to play it safe, don't enable
MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE
Regards,
Mike
