Hi hermann,
Thanks. Now "bttv-0.9.11" compiles without any error and the
new
bttv driver is loaded sucessfully.
"bttv: driver version 0.7.106 loaded". Line from dmesg.
I updated bttv driver to avoid Device or resource busy error. What
I
want is, I want to run "XAWTV" in parallel with "FFMPEG".
"streamer"
from "xawtv" records video streams in ".avi" extensions. I want
to
record video streams directly into "mpeg" form. So I recorded
video
streams in "mpeg" form using "ffmpeg". When I execute "ffmpeg"
in
parallel with "xawtv", "Device or resource busy" error occurs. I
want
to watch TV using xawtv and side by side record video streams
using
ffmpeg. "xawtv" uses "/dev/video0" to grab video streams.
"ffmpeg"
also uses /dev/video0" to record video streams. One of our user in
our
mailing list adviced me to upgrade "bttv" driver to overcome
this
error. Still the problem persists. How to avoid this ?
With Regards,
S.Suriya Mohan.

Hi Suriyah,
you can do some --dry-run on the 2.4.20 you already have and
then
patch
you up comfortably to latest -pre using "patch-kernel" in
scripts
folder.
For 2.4.20 the link is
http://bytesex.org/patches/2.4.20/patch-2.4.20-kraxel.gz
If you like to see it first on 2.4.20, save your .config if you
want
to
use it again, make clean and mrproper. To follow the new 2.6.0
conventions put the patch into your 2.4.20 sources on top level
path.
You can edit the main Makefile there and set an extraversion. I
use
-Xv4l2.
Unpack the patch there and spend some time to read what is
written
there
in an editor :)
Then you can do (man patch? - Kernel Howto?) "patch --verbose
--dry-run
-p1 < patch-2.4.20-kraxel" or whatever. (man diff is another
intresting
subject.)
If you are satisfied with the results, remove the --dry-run and
do
it.
Put your .config in there again, do what needs to be done,
adjust
your
bootloader and boot into the new kernel.
If up, cd in your bttv-0.9.11, do a make and a make install.
Greetings
Hermann
