That's weird. Here, it compiles fine against my 2.6.32 kernel, as there's a patch that removes the extra parameter. I'll double check and add a fix if I found something wrong. > For what it's worth, I've attached the shell script I use to pull > updates and do a new build. > Doing the initial setup is well explained by the > linuxtv.org/media_tree.git page, > but this script may be of use to end users wanting to track development. Thanks for your script, but it seems specific to your environment. Could you please make it more generic and perhaps patch the existing build.sh script? It would be nice to have some optional parameters there, to make life easier for end-users. Thanks!
