[no subject]

	I am trying to get MythTV working with Debian stable. I bought a
TV card that's compatible with the ivtv driver (ivtv.sourceforge.net) and
now I am trying to compile my kernel, which is like step 0. I can't use a
2.6 kernel because the motherboard in question uses nvidia network drivers
which are only supported in 2.4 (well, they are supposed to be supported
in 2.6, but I never got it to work).

Anyway, here's the deal:

I apt-got linux-kernel 2.4.26 sources. cd'ed to /usr/src. Unbzipped
and untarred the source. made this soft link: linux -> kernel-source-2.4.26. I'm not really sure that's the right thing to do....

Then I applied the V4L2 patches for 2.4.26 from bytesex.org:

catchy:/usr/src/linux# patch -p1 < ~/software/20_v4l2-2.4.26.diff
patching file drivers/media/video/Makefile
patching file drivers/media/video/v4l1-compat.c
patching file drivers/media/video/v4l2-common.c
patching file drivers/media/video/videodev.c
patching file include/linux/videodev.h
patching file include/linux/videodev2.h

Good. So I continued with kernel config and so on on:

make menuconfig

(turned on all V4L stuff although I saw no ref to V4L2)

make dep

(nothing significant here as far as I could tell...)

make-kpkg clean

make-kpkg --revision=catchy3 kernel_image

cd ..

dpkg -i kernel-image-2.4.26_catchy3_i386.deb

(Reading database ... 91792 files and directories currently installed.)

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/media/video/tvaudio.o

It continues to let me try to install but printed the same errors when I
tried to boot the kernel, and I think I need tuner.o and tvaudio.o so I
can't just take them out of my kernel config.

Any ideas?

TIA,
