Kernel compile fails with make-kpkg, not with make (Now a PVR-250 install question)

I'm trying to install a new Hauppauge PVR-250. I'm using the guide at the IvTv Wiki. Part of that requires me to compile a new kernel. After configuring the kernel (the 2.6.11 kernel-source from unstable), if I just type make to do a manual install it copmletes the compile. But if I run make-kpkg, it fails with a crap load of DRM errors:

Code:

. . . .

drivers/char/drm/gamma_drv.c:56:22: drm_proc.h: No such file or directory

drivers/char/drm/gamma_drv.c:57:20: drm_vm.h: No such file or directory

make[2]: *** [drivers/char] Error 2

make[1]: *** [drivers] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11'

make: *** [stamp-build] Error 2

I have no idea what's going on there, so any help would be appreciated.

On a side note, if anyone has a better guide to installing the PVR-250, or on how to get the remote of the Audigy2 ZS Platinum working, I'd appreciate a link. My searches haven't come up with much of anything yet.

Try removing your source directory and extracting the source tarball again. The files you list do exist on my box.

Ummmm....why are you recompiling your kernel for a tv-tuner, your card should be supported by your distro provided kernel. Don't bother doing that yet.

Post the output of :

lspci

lsmod | grep bttv

The guide at the IvTv Wiki told me to recompile it.

lspci:

lsmod | grep bttv finds nothing.

By the way it's a PVR-250 so I should be using the ivtv driver. I don't think I need the bttv. Correct me if I'm wrong.

MythTV Guide

I used that guide to install my PVR-250.

Eulogy: the link is broken.

zuralin: I missed your post before. I'm actually in the process of recompiling now. This computer's getting old though. It's taking a while. I'll come back later with the results.

EDIT: Oh, yeah. The HCL entry mentions that his lspci shows an iTVC15. Mine shows an iTVC16. Could that be a problem?

link works for me. wierd.

Back up. Server must have been down. I got a timeout...

EDIT: Yeah, it's going on and off on me.

The guide says to download this file: http://205.209.168.201/~ckennedy/ivt....2.0-rc3a.tgz. That link is broken. So I used the ivtv-0.2.0-rc3k package from IvTv's site. That's the only thing i did differently, and it didn't work. All the steps completed without errors, but at the end, I couldn't find the ivtv module:

Code:

julie:/home/corey/ivtv-0.2.0-rc3k# modprobe ivtv

FATAL: Module ivtv not found.

I'm thinking this has something to do with the fact that this is the newer version of the PVR-250. The guide says:

Quote:

Newer releases of the PVR250 card are not being recognized by the stable ivtv driver, but a patch has been developed and has been applied to the ckennedy versions.

.
That's the file that isn't online now.

Post the output of:
# ls /usr/src
# uname -r

edit: BTW, I wrote the "guide" you originally posted.. Most likely you need to use
KERNELDIR="/kernel/localtion/" make
otherwise it places the modules in the wrong location.

Code:

julie:/home/corey/ivtv-0.3.6r/utils# ls /usr/src

alsa-driver-1.0.8

alsa-driver-1.0.8.tar.bz2

kernel-headers-2.6.11-1

kernel-headers-2.6.11-1-k7

kernel-headers-2.6.8-2

kernel-headers-2.6.8-2-386

kernel-kbuild-2.6-3

modules

nvidia-kernel-2.6.11-1-k7_1.0.7174-3+2.6.11-6_i386.deb

nvidia-kernel-2.6.8-2-386_1.0.7174-3+2.6.8-16_i386.deb

nvidia-kernel-source.tar.gz

julie:/home/corey/ivtv-0.3.6r/utils# uname -r

2.6.11-1-k7

When building the ivtv module try using:
KERNELDIR="/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.11-1-k7" make

That didn't work either.
