Annotation of DVB/INSTALL, revision 1.2

1.1       cvs         1: Configuration:
                      2: 
                      3: - Make sure that the kernel sources of the kernel you are using (NOT the
                      4:   sources of some other kernel) are in the directory /usr/src/linux.
                      5:   Otherwise, change the path for KERNEL_LOCATION in DVB/driver/Makefile.
                      6:   Note that the configuration of the driver sources also has to match that
                      7:   of the kernel you are running.
                      8: 
                      9:   You should NOT have the kernel version of the i2c driver installed.
                     10:   The videodev driver can be installed, but you could then get some
                     11:   error messages below. But the driver should still work.
                     12: 
                     13:   It is better if you do not have any parts of Video4Linux installed
                     14:   into the kernel when testing the DVB driver.
                     15:   I hope our changes will soon be in the standard kernel. The changes are
                     16:   minimal. Most only define new constants for the DVB hardware.
                     17: 
                     18: - Login as root, change to the directory DVB/driver and type "make".
                     19: 
                     20: - If everything compiled without errors, type "make insmod" to install
                     21:   the modules.
                     22:   During the installation of the modules your PC can "hang" for one or
                     23:   two seconds. This happens during the loading of the ARM application 
                     24:   and is normal.
                     25:   You should also see a picture of Pro7 on the composite output now
                     26:   (only if you have an LNB pointing on Astra 1e connected to the antenna   
                     27:    input of course).
                     28:   If you do not get a picture this might be the fault of a still unresolved
                     29:   timing problem on some hardware. But the driver should still work with the
                     30:   gVideo application.
                     31: 
1.2     ! cvs        32: - Change to DVB/libdvb and type "make"
        !            33: 
1.1       cvs        34: - Now change to DVB/apps and type "make"
                     35: 
                     36: - gVideo is a gtk application for DVB-S reception 
                     37:   a sample config file for Astra is in DVB/apps/xtvrc.astra
                     38:   move this file to ~/.xtvrc
                     39:   The format of this file is still changing a lot!
                     40: 
                     41: - CyberLogin is a login program for EON
                     42:   If you have an EON account edit the file CberLogin.ini and start CyberLogin
                     43:   after having installed the driver.
                     44:   Also read the file DVB/doc/README.EON.
