I don't I'm afriad, however looking again I may have been looking at the
wrong information. The information in the AverMedia website pointed me
to [1], although now I've found the model number of my card (E506) and
googled that, I think that I was following a guide for one of
AverMedia's USB tuners, whereas mine is PCMCIA.
I've now found [2] on Linuxtv.org, which tells me some stuff to download
and complie, however when trying to compile I get the following error:
Updating/Creating .config
File not found: /lib/modules/2.6.15-27-amd64-k8/build/.config at
./scripts/make_kconfig.pl line 30.
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `.myconfig', needed by
`config-compat.h'. Stop.
Is this meaningful to anyone? The only compilation errors I can ever
decipher are those during the configure script, and there isn't one in
this case.
Cheers,
Mark
