Hello,

Thank you. I ve tryed 3 times and still the same.

I have got 3 WARNINGS when i MAKE


WARNING I
==========================

Code: Select All Code

***WARNING:*** You do not have the full kernel sources installed.
This does not prevent you from building the v4l-dvb tree if you have the
kernel headers, but the full kernel source may be required in order to use
make menuconfig / xconfig / qconfig.

If you are experiencing problems building the v4l-dvb tree, please try
building against a vanilla kernel before reporting a bug.

Vanilla kernels are available at http://kernel.org.
On most distros, this will compile a newly downloaded kernel:

cp /boot/config-`uname -r` <your kernel dir>/.config
cd <your kernel dir>
make all modules_install install

Please see your distro's web site for instructions to build a new kernel.

Any idea ??

[zeuf69]

the command :

Code: Select All Code

apt-get install linux-kernel-devel


return that package does not exist.
Is it the same for you ??

[zeuf69]

This is the 5th time i rebuild and re-install the drivers but no way.
I still have no frontend at all:

Any idea ??

This is the "warning" can help to find the solution. It's a driver problem.

Best regards

[zeuf69]

Hello,

Ok, thank you. I ve been contacting support and still no answer.

Why am i having problems if some other people with the same Ubuntu 11.10 and the same version of driver do not get this problem ?
I tryed on 2 different machines (one classi ubuntu 11.10, one Mythtv 11.10) and i still have the same troubles.

If anyone can help.

Thanx

[p3r0n]

Today there is a new driver... maybe the solution is that!

Best regard!

[zeuf69]

I ve done it! Downloading the latest driver :
