<div>I believe the problem exists somewhere with the module I was trying to compile also. When I download the saa7134-stable branch (which was merged into the <a href="http://linuxtv.org/" target="_blank">linuxtv.org</a> tree) I get the same errors.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I found a thread here on linux-media mailing list: <a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg06865.html" target="_blank">http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg06865.html</a></div>
<div> </div>
<div>But there is no resolution and I cannot seem to have make realize I have the full source installed.</div></div></blockquote>
<div> </div>
<div>For anyone else having this problem I was able to get some resolution from the guys in #v4l on IRC.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Basically the Firedtv driver needs the entire kernel source to compile - not just the headers. They said they are aware of the problem and will address it at some point. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>So a quick work around is to disable the firedtv driver by modifying the ./v4l/.config file and changing '=m' to '=n' on the firedtv line. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The longer solution is to install the kernel source and then modify the makefile configuration options to use that instead of the headers (it will default to using the headers still if not configured correctly). If you're not using firedtv, this is not worth it.</div>

<div>Thanks all who helped!</div></div>
