Hi Andreas,

I have also seen this oddity when installing capture agents, though I sheepishly ignore it since I get the driver installed and have not had any issues running "older" VGA2USB drivers with MH.

Nonetheless, I think you should go ahead and file this as a MH bug so that the capture agent developers can take a look at what is causing this issue.

Hi, are there any similar experiences from your side, as regards the choice of "old" vga2usb-drivers, even if a newer version for the respective kernel is available?

Is it possible, that the choice of the install script depends on the hardware/firmware used?

Or should I go and file this as a bug?

Regards, Andreas

Hi,

when it comes to installing drivers for the Epiphan VGA2USB LR device with the install.sh script, there is a list to choose from, like

        1) vga2usb-3.24.8.4-2.6.35-22-generic-i686.tbz
        2) vga2usb-3.24.8.4-2.6.35-22-generic-pae.tbz
        3) vga2usb-3.24.8.4-2.6.35-22-server-x86_64.tbz
4) vga2usb-3.24.10.3-ubuntu_10.10_beta_2.6.35-22-generic-x86_64.tbz
        5) vga2usb-3.25.0.2-ubuntu-2.6.35-25-generic_x86_64.tbz
        6) vga2usb-3.26.0.4-ubuntu-2.6.35-25-generic_i686.tbz
        7) vga2usb-3.26.0.4-ubuntu-2.6.35-28-generic-pae.tbz
        8) vga2usb-3.26.0.15-ubuntu-2.6.35-28-generic_x86_64.tbz
        9) vga2usb-3.26.0.23-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64.tbz
        10) vga2usb-3.26.0.25-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686.PAE.tbz
        11) vga2usb-3.26.0.25-ubuntu-2.6.35-30-server_X86_64.tbz
        12) vga2usb-3.26.0.26-ubuntu-2.6.35-30-generic_X86_64.tbz
        13) vga2usb-3.26.0.27-custom-2.6.35.14.i586.tbz
        14) vga2usb-3.27.0.3-2.6.35.14-106.fc14.x86_64.tbz

"uname -a": Linux ltcc-fhhs1 2.6.35-30-generic #59-Ubuntu SMP Tue Aug 30 19:00:03 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

So I would expect driver number (12) to load fine; but it doesn't. Instead just (5) will be accepted by the install script.

Why is that so? I have the feeling to use "old" drivers and introduce buggy behaviour this way.

Regards, Andreas
