[mpeg2] Re: kfir driver insmod no device found on 2.4.18 kernel

[Andreas Krings <andreas.krings@rwth-aachen.de>]

Hi,

have you checked your devices that a file called /dev/video0 and/or 
/dev/video exists on your System. Isn't it the case, you can create one 
using "mknod /dev/video0 c 18 0" (i think, but i'am not sure about the 
number 18. ) and then link this file to /dev/video.

Greetings

Andreas
