Hello

Anyone can help me please, i want to install driver for tbs 6984 quad tuner but i can't.
i have been following the install manual but dont work for me:

I.1 extract linux-tbs-drivers.tar.bz2 archive:

# tar xjvf linux-tbs-drivers.tar.bz2

I.2 go to driver package directory:

# cd linux-tbs-drivers

I.3 depending on your kernel version and if the kernel is x86 or
x86_64 (check output of 'uname -a') do:

- for x86 kernel 3.x (x86 32 bit installations of kernel 3.x):

# ./v4l/tbs-x86_r3.sh

- for x86 kernel 2.6.x (x86 32 bit installations of kernel 2.6.x):

# ./v4l/tbs-x86.sh

- for any x86_64 kernel (x86 64 bit installations of Linux):

# ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh

I.3 build and install the driver:

# make && make install

I.4 reboot in order to load the newly installed driver:

# shutdown -r now

I use kernel 2.6.32-279, and my Os is x86_64

when type make & make install then show me the next error:

[root@fedeer linux-tbs-drivers]# ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh
TBS drivers configured for x86_64 platform.
[root@fedeer linux-tbs-drivers]# make && make install

Hi wannabe
Can you try running "make clean" and "make distclean" (or "make dist-clean") before any installation step?

Best regards.

I believe the problem is if I understand correctly there are only three possible setups with TBS

2.6 32bit
3.x 32bit
3.x 64bit

your attempting todo 2.6 64bit there is no precompiled lib for that

the 6984 is the same, just look in the TBS folder /v4l

Hi wannabe
Don't worry for that. I doesn't remember if the command was distclean or dist-clean.
Now I confirm, the command is "distclean"
Well, did you try running "make clean" and "make distclean" before all TBS installation steps?

Best regards

well you havent done a make menuconfig thats why there is no .config

still dont think it'll work though, upgrade your kernel and it should work fine

Hello updatelee

can you tell me how upgrade the kernel?

Thanks

in Ubuntu its as simple as opening software manager and clicking 'check for updates'. I have no idea in CentOS Im sure they have a forum or something though.

Hi wannabe
In CentOS, update kernel it's not so easy as in Ubuntu, but there are a lot of documentation.
Refer to chapter 39 of "
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Deployment Guide" http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deplo ... ation.html

But, if is not a problem for you, update your kernel and centos distribution with "yum update"

Best regards
