Re: l'écran de ma console est tout brouillé au démarrage après une recompilation (annexe)

L'annexe, le fichier README.Debian:

mga-vid-source for Debian
-------------------------

You can compile the module by untarring the mga-vid.tar.gz tarball you'll
find in /usr/src , and then entering the top-level kernel source directory
of the kernel you want to compile the module for, and issue the command:

 # fakeroot make-kpkg modules_image

You should end up with a mga-vid-*.deb file in the parent directory, which
you can install as usual with 'dpkg -i'.

Obviously the kernel needs to support modules for the driver to work. ;-)

I recommend that you also install the mga-vid-common package, which will
provide you with a test application, a modutils configuration file for
module autoloading, and a devfsd configuration file which will make sure
the device node will get sane permissions when its created.

(You can skip the rest if you're using devfs)

The device node /dev/mga_vid is NOT created during install of any of these
packages, because device nodes created by packages _must_ use MAKEDEV to
do so. MAKEDEV doesn't know how to create the device node, so I can't do
it without violating policy.

The following commands will create the device node and give it sane
permissions:

  # mknod /dev/mga_vid c 178 0
  # chown root:video /dev/mga_vid
  # chmod 0660 /dev/mga_vid
