Unable to build on Ubuntu 9.10 with kernel 2.6.31-22-generic

[jockmacmad]

When I unpack the rar file and start to follow the instructions step 2 tells me to run a script based on the architecture e.g. ./tbs-x84_64.sh. No such script exists in the directory of the extracted bz2 file itself extracted from the rar. I try to run sudo make && sudo make install, a whole bunch of C files are compiled to object files .o succesfully but then during this compilation it fails saying

No rule to make target TBS/linux-s2apitbs6980-1_20101024/v4l/tbs6980ctrl.o needed by TBS/linux-s2apitbs6980-1_20101024/v4l/tda18271.o

Can you help ?

Upgraded to 10.04.01 LTS which is kernel 2.6.32-27-generic and get exactly the same issue.

Okay saw the other thread which says use ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh rather than ./tbs-x86_64.sh

yes, just do:

Code: Select All Code

# cd ./v4l
# ./tbs-x86_64.sh
# cd ..
# make && make install

Same issue on a clean Ubuntu 10.10 install after running the script

Code: Select All Code

CC [M]  /home/jock/linux-s2api-tbs6980_1/v4l/cx23885-f300.o
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `/home/jock/linux-s2api-tbs6980_1/v4l/tbs6980ctrl.o', needed by `/home/jock/linux-s2api-tbs6980_1/v4l/tda18271.o'. Stop.

the output from running the script was:-

Okay so I see the mistake....

need to

Code: Select All Code

cd ./v4l

then

Code: Select All Code

./tbs-x86_64.sh

for the stat to work not use

Code: Select All Code

./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh

Apologies but I did find in another post to Andrew you put

hi Andrew,

those errors means that you didn't run './v4l/tbs-x86.sh' or './v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh' (depending on your platform - 32-bit or 64-bit Linux kernel) or the script doesn't finish successfully. did you get:

"TBS 6980/6981 driver configured for x86 platform."
or
"TBS 6980/6981 driver configured for x64 platform."

after executing './v4l/tbs-x86.sh' or './v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh'?

which does have the

or './v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh'

in it.

Anyways onwards and upwards and thanks for the reply

./tbs-x86_64.sh

[/code]

that's correct if you use:

http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/TBS6981/linux-s2api-tbs6980-1_20101024.rar

but if you use newer package like:

http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/8921/linux-s2api-tbs8921_v1.24.1.rar

(yes, it includes TBS 6981 support too)

then no need to

Code: Select All Code

cd ./v4l

and then execute

Code: Select All Code

./tbs-x86_64.sh

and just

Code: Select All Code

 ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh

will suffice.

Shh don't tell me there is a newer one I have it all working

you don't need to upgrade, because 6980/6981 driver is the same - only the package is a little updated and also includes drivers for our latest products.
