Follow the instructions located here.

http://bttv-v4l2.sourceforge.net/

You will NEED to get a vanilla kernel. Use 2-2.16 if you can. If you need
some quick pointers,
You can email me here.

Subject: [V4L] Slightly OT: RH6.2, BTTV0.7.41, I2C 2.5.2

Hi,

    Tried to get the above going in prep for XawTV 3.20 and had some
install problems.  I am wondering what order I should do things in?
This is what I did:
Install RH6.2(no KDE, newserver, EMACS, NFS)
Install the I2C RPM from the lmsensors site(probably a mistake, but...)
do a make menuconfig with defaults and then save it.
Try doing a make on BTTV 0.7.41

seems to have quite a few errors.

Tried to install I2C sources, 1st with method 1, then with merge kernel
(method 3)

Still BTTV compile errors, but they are different.
Oh yeah, the make modules for the kernel now dies on i2c-old.h

I have BTTV and I2C sources untarred into /usr/local/src
Kernel is in /usr/src/linux as usual

I2C seems to want to place includes in /usr/local/src/include (at least
with method 1)
BTTV seems to want them in /usr/src/linux/include

I may need to wipe out the kernel tree and start over.
Any ideas on which order to do things.  I actually compiled a kernel
after trying BTTV the first time, successfully, and then again
unsuccessfully after patching with I2C.

Do I need to upgrade the 2.2-14 kernel first?  I would rather not jump
right to 2.4.0 just yet :)  While not an external machine, this will
still be open to the outside on http...

This is probably just a semi-newbie mistake, hopefully!

Thanks,
Eric
