I would advise at this point that you delete the v4l-dvb directory and pull ina 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 compilesthe 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 I can't attach mine because it is outdated (my copy of the repository ispretty old). -- "Life is full of positive and negative events.
