I've installed Knoppmyth R5A15 on my machine and everything seems ok. I now need to install the video capture drivers for my Marvel G400 card. I've found the drivers but they need to be built with a new kernel. I'm fairly new to the linux world and building and installing a new kernel scares me a bit. Here are the instructions from the driver README. If any one could give me some pointers on doing this with Knoppmyth that'd be great.

To build this driver perform the following steps:

- Obtain and configure a Linux 2.6.0 (or later) kernel. Make sure
the following options are enabled:
CONFIG_MODULES,
CONFIG_I2C, CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT,
CONFIG_FB, CONFIG_FB_MATROX, CONFIG_FB_MATROX_G450,
CONFIG_FB_MATROX_I2C,
CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV, CONFIG_VIDEO_BT848

- Patch the kernel with the included kernel-2.6.0.patch file. For
example:
cd /path/to/linux/soruce/
patch -p1 < /path/to/driver_fb/kernel-2.6.0.patch
And then build and install the kernel.

- Build the driver_fb source code:
cd /path/to/driver_fb
make LINUX_SOURCE=/path/to/linux/source/

To load the driver:

- Run the included iv script as root. For example:
su -
cd /path/to/driver_fb
./iv

Thanks for the help.
