Great! Just downloaded it - it does compile nicely on fc5. Should i do make install, or just wait until ATRPMS has the nicely packaged binary modules? I have already done make install of the old utils and driver - will those be overwritten when i install the rpm, or do i need to hunt them out of the file system. The kernel module stuff isn't that important, as they should go away when i rpm -e the kernel - or?
Hmm... When i think about it, i would probably need to compile anyway, as i am not running the standard fedora kernel (i use a dev kernel that is like the standard one, exept it has some patches to make my network card work - ref. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=180063 ) - and the atrpms srpms seemed to be dependent upon some rpm macros (or something - i ain't really into rpm) i don't have. --- Kyrre lør, 25.03.2006 kl. 01.40 skrev Hans Verkuil: > Due to the many problems people had compiling ivtv-0.6.0 with Fedora > Core 5 (thanks to FC5 representing an 2.6.16-rc6 kernel as a 2.6.15 > kernel) I have made a ivtv-0.6.1 release to workaround these issues. > > It also adds extra version checks when people try to compile this driver > on older or newer kernels. > > If you are running FC5, then I recommend upgrading to ivtv-0.6.1.
