Well I did all of that initially.  And I appear to be running the only
kernel installed.  I downloaded the driver and did

make menuconfig
make 
make install
make unload

then
modprobe cx18


How can the driver not be for the kernel?  I thought the driver was
built to match the kernel and that was the point of building!?

What I did not do though is put the firmware anywhere.  Ill try to put
that where it belongs next attempt.
