I did this patch several weeks ago and made all the mistakes. I ended up rebuilding the kernel and all the modules. However, somebody suggested doing the following (I wish I had thought of this!)
1- Locate your existing tuner.o file and write it down. #locate tuner.o - Mine is located here: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/drivers/media/video/tuner.o 2- cd to the location of the tuner source code. Mine is here: /usr/src/linux-2.4.27/drivers/media/video/tuner.c 3- Patch the tuner.c and tuner.h files - Note - Pretty much follow the ckennedy instructions, but the path in the patch was not correct for my box. I had to have the patch file on the same directory as the existing source file for the patch to find the tuner.c and tuner.h files. 4- cd to /usr/src/linux 5- run make_modules - do not run make_modules_install !! 6- Rename your original file to something (tuner.o.sav). Copy the new tuner.o file to the installed location (from step 1 above). Warning - Several people have horsed-up their installation when trying to install this patch, but I think this process works. Things went wrong for me when I did make_modules_install, which should have worked, but that's another story! Good luck, Don
