Re: Re: philips PCA20TV/DE



Welcome to the wonderfull world of kernel compiling.

apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.7 kernel-package

or whatever kernel you want to run and any other dependencies.  Then:

cd /usr/src
bzip2 -d kernel-source-2.4.7.tar.bz2
tar -xvf kernel-source-2.4.7.tar
ln -s kernel-source-2.4.7 linux

Then you can go into that directory ;>
If you want to compile in support run:
cp /boot/config-CURRENT KERNEL VERSION /usr/src/linux/.config
This should get most options preselected for you that you are currently
running with.  Be sure to change any disk driver modules into built in
if you boot off them.

make menuconfig in /usr/src and find multimedia devices->video4linux and
select support for your card.  ALSO be sure to go into Char devices->I2C
and get I2c support and bit-banging and device.  Then 

make-kpkg --revision=YOURSYSNAME.1.0 kernel-image

wait till done

cd ..
dpkg -i kernel-image-YOURSYSNAME.1.0_i386.deb
update lilo and reboot.
