How can I install dvb drivers to 2.6 kernel after building them succesfully.
I know that I can load the drivers by going into DVB source directory and running "insmod.sh load"
but I would like to get these drivers loaded automatically (instead of the default ones used in 2.6.3)
by defining settings into /etc/modprope.conf
I have a plenty of *.ko files in build-2.6 directory but kernel have them in a compressed
*.ko.gz format under directory
Do you use a kernel.org kernel or a Mandrake one? Is this "modules are gzipped" option a standard selectable option?
I am using Mandrake kernels all of them have ko files gzipped. But I think they have not made any special modifications
for the DVB sources compared to the kernel.org kernel.
I do not know is it a selectable option in the kernel config whether one wants .ko files to be gzipped or has mandrake
done something for them.
Anyway, here is the list of DVB files I have under my kernel:
(It does not contain following modules which are available in the dvb-cvs: mt352.ko, nxt6000.ko, saa7146.ko, saa7146_vv.ko, ttusb_dec.ko)
./b2c2/skystar2.ko.gz ./bt8xx/bt878.ko.gz ./bt8xx/dvb-bt8xx.ko.gz ./dvb-core/dvb-core.ko.gz ./frontends/alps_tdlb7.ko.gz ./frontends/alps_tdmb7.ko.gz ./frontends/at76c651.ko.gz ./frontends/cx24110.ko.gz ./frontends/dst.ko.gz ./frontends/grundig_29504-401.ko.gz ./frontends/grundig_29504-491.ko.gz ./frontends/mt312.ko.gz ./frontends/sp887x.ko.gz ./frontends/stv0299.ko.gz ./frontends/tda1004x.ko.gz ./frontends/ves1820.ko.gz ./frontends/ves1x93.ko.gz ./ttpci/budget-av.ko.gz ./ttpci/budget-ci.ko.gz ./ttpci/budget-core.ko.gz ./ttpci/budget-patch.ko.gz ./ttpci/budget.ko.gz ./ttpci/dvb-ttpci.ko.gz ./ttpci/ttpci-eeprom.ko.gz ./ttusb-budget/dvb-ttusb-budget.ko.gz
Should I just compress all *.ko files to *.ko.gz and replace the original ones with the new ones under /lib/modules/2.6.3-4.tmb.1mdk/kernel/drivers/media/dvb?
Mixing in-kernel and CVS driver module files is crying for problems. Make sure you replace *all* modules accordingly.
I am not 100% sure to which subdirectory will mt352.ko, nxt6000.ko, saa7146.ko, saa7146_vv.ko, ttusb_dec.ko belong to?
Would following list be correct?
./frontends/mt352.ko ./frontends/nxt6000.ko ./frontends/saa7146.ko ./frontends/saa7146_vv.ko ./ttusb-budget/ttusb_dec.ko
re, the current Makefile sucks more or less. But don't rely on the "modules are gzipped" feature.
So you think that I should not gzip modules before copying them?
