Error Compiling Driver

Postby kingsize » Wed Mar 20, 2019 8:52 pm

Hi there.
I have been using my TBS card from some time now and am quite use to compiling the drivers every time there is a kernel upgrade. How ever just lately I've been having no end of trouble.
My system is currently running Ubuntu Server 16.04LTS.
Linux localhost 4.4.0-143-generic #169-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 7 07:56:38 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have installed "build-essential" & "kernel-headers" I'm not aware of any other packages I might need.
The compile out put is bellow. Please any other information you might need from me just ask and I'd be happy to add to this.

Hi

You can have a try update the kernel to 4.10 and try with our latest open source driver :
https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media/wiki

or this offline package :
#wget http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/document/linux/media_build-2019-0308.tar.bz2
# sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/
#tar jxvf media_build-2019-0308.tar.bz2
#cd media_build
#./install.sh
#reboot

Thanks

Kind Regards

steven

So I've had a go and what do you know. I have finally succeeded in installing the git hub drivers.

Thank you for your help.
