Re: Trying to compile for kernel version 2.6.28

Thanks a lot.
Only syncing my sources every 2 months, I forgot about the
	make allmodconfig

I keep
 http://linuxtv.org/hg/~jhoogenraad/rtl2831-r2.
in sync until Antti's sources have been tested, and IR support is put in, so that these sticks can be supported from the normal kernel.

At this moment, I cannot figure out how to compile v4l with kernel version 2.6.28.
I see, however, that the daily build reports:
linux-2.6.28-i686: OK

Yes, and that's correct. It does compile from scratch with 2.6.28.

If you look at v4l/versions.txt, this is already marked to compile only with
kernels 2.6.31 or newer. It should be noticed, however, that the building system
won't touch at your .config if you just do an hg update (or hg pull -u).

You'll need to ask it explicitly to process versions.txt again, by calling one of
the alternatives bellow that re-generates a v4l/.config.

If you are using a customized config, you'll need to call either one of those:
	make menuconfig
	make config
	make xconfig
	  or
	make gconfig

(in this specific case, just entering there and saving the config is enough - there's
no need to touch on any items)

Or, at the simple case were you're just building everything, you'll need to do:
	make allmodconfig

A side effect of touching at v4l/.config is that all (selected) drivers will
recompile again.

Cheers,
Mauro
