First of all, you shouldn't be compiling kernels from source from kernel.org unless you have a special reason for it and you what you are doing.
Instead, you should be installing / compiling new kernels "the Debian way", which is slightly different, but is quite cool once you get the hang of it :). See chapter 9.6.1 on this page: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-post-install.en.html on how to accomplish this. About the error you are getting: - did you type make module_install? I think it should be modules_install. Also, I can remember this is different in 2.6. Look at the readme that comes with the kernel-source .deb (see the above manual on how to get the deb) - bttv cards should be no problem. Works fine here with my Hauppauge WinTV PCI. Good luck compiling your kernel the Debain way ;) Pim On Fri, 9 Jul 2004 01:27:54 -0700 (PDT), j smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > i have Debian 2.6, Bt878-based TV card. i downloaded > kernel 2.6 from kernel.org, and compile it. when i > execute "make module_install", it complains. needless > to say, when i use the new kernel, it can't find bttv > driver. attached is .config, what's wrong? > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
