Create a bash script for automatic installation of the drive

[xunil2003]

Hello,

Excuse me if I speak your language badly, I'm French.
I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 x64, I noticed each has updated ubuntu kernel, you must reinstall the driver of my two TBS PCI-E TBS (TBS 6984 / TBS 6220)

Because I'm tired of reinstalling every driver has updated kernel, I made a bash script to install automatically, but it does not work.

Could you help me?

Here is my bash script.
To execute in the terminal I type sh install-driver-tb.sh

the script

Code: Select All Code

#!/bin/bash

echo ""
echo "+----------------------------------------------+"
echo "|   Driver Installation for Linux Ubuntu TBS |"
echo "|   Updated on: 25/10/2012                   |"
echo "+----------------------------------------------+"

echo ""
cd /home/laurent/pilotes/tbs-linux-drivers_v121021/linux-tbs-drivers/

echo ""
sudo ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh

echo ""
sudo make TARGET=x86_64-elf && sudo make install

echo ""
echo "ATTENTION :"
echo "-----------"
echo "You must restart the pc."
echo "Once restarted please type in the terminal to check that the driver is installed correctly :"
echo "dmesg | grep cx23885"
echo ""

Thank you.
cordially

Hello,

I modified the bash script, it works like this.
Reinstalling the driver is made ​​and took into account the change in the kernel "3.2.0-32-generic" to "3.2.0-34-generic".
For that it is taken into account must be before:

Code: Select All Code

sudo make clean
sudo make distclean

Then reinstalled the driver as in my bash script

The bash script:

Code: Select All Code

#!/bin/bash

echo ""
echo "+----------------------------------------------+"
echo "| Driver Installation for Linux Ubuntu TBS |"
echo "| Updated on: 01/12/2012                   |"
echo "+----------------------------------------------+"

echo ""
cd /home/laurent/pilotes/tbs-linux-drivers_v121021/linux-tbs-drivers/

echo ""
echo "sudo make clean"
echo "-----------------------------"
sudo make clean
echo ""
echo "sudo make distclean"
echo "-----------------------------"
sudo make distclean


echo ""
echo "execute : ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh"
echo "-----------------------------"
sudo ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh

echo ""
echo "execute : /home/laurent/pilotes/tbs-linux-drivers_v121021/linux-tbs-drivers/"
echo "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
cd /home/laurent/pilotes/tbs-linux-drivers_v121021/linux-tbs-drivers/
#sudo make TARGET=x86_64-elf && sudo make install
echo ""
echo "execute : sudo make TARGET=x86_64-elf"
echo "-------------------------------------"
sudo make TARGET=x86_64-elf
echo ""
echo "execute : sudo make install"
echo "---------------------------"
sudo make install


echo ""
echo "ATTENTION :"
echo "-----------"
echo "You must restart the pc."
echo "Once restarted please type in the terminal to check that the driver is installed correctly :"
echo "dmesg | grep frontend"
echo ""

Once your PC restarts, type in the terminal :

Code: Select All Code

dmesg | grep frontend

It will show your cards like this :

Code: Select All Code

laurent@PC-ubuntu:~/bash/Ubuntu_12.04$ dmesg | grep frontend
