Time is one reason, however, there's another: It is not a good idea to run as root. Most people compile everything with a normal user and then use "sudo" command to install/remove/insert modules. Unfortunately, depending on the distribution, sudo inherits PATH from the normal user, instead of root. Due to that, if you replace it for just lsmod, it will fail for people that don't use gentoo. Maybe good solution is to test if lsmod (and other similar tools) are at /sbin or /usr/sbin. Alternatively, we can try to replace lsmod by something like (untested): v4l_modules := $(shell PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin lsmod|cut -d' ' -f1 ) $(patsubst %.ko,%,$(inst-m)) > > Regards > Matthias > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Cheers, Mauro -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
