Hi
Some time ago I received a lot of suggestions from various people when I
was trying to get the tuner working on my tuner card with the saa7133
Phillips chip. Ive been messing around with it now and again, but still
with no success.
On one of the LUGs I recently came across the following:
"You still need to configure I2C support in the kernel, as well as
making a module for saa7134"
and
"the following are found in the kernel sources
in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-13/drivers/media/video/saa7134"
In that folder I find a file called Kconfig which shows, amongst other
things:
config VIDEO_SAA7134
tristate "Philips SAA7134 support"
depends on VIDEO_DEV && PCI && I2C && INPUT
select VIDEOBUF_DMA_SG
select VIDEO_IR
select VIDEO_TUNER
select VIDEO_TVEEPROM
select CRC32
---help---
This is a video4linux driver for Philips SAA713x based
TV cards.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called saa7134.
The instruction to compile the driver is greek to me. What does "choose
M here" mean?
Would be grateful for any help
Robert
