Post subject:  Install one module for v4l-dvb?

I'm trying to get a DVICO Fusion Express installed into my R5F27 box. This card is not currently supported in the version of v4l-dvb installed on my R5F27. According to linuxtv.org the digital works on the Express but not the analog, which is fine as that is all I want. The only thing is it requires the cx23885 module (pci-e bridge) which is not installed for me (checked with a modprobe and lsmod).

I thought about just updating to the latest v4l-dvb, but in another post cecil said that the version in R5F27 is already newer. So, is there any way to install just the one module?

I have been looking for a way to get this done for some time. I know the card will work, but I don't have the skills to get it there. Anyone give me a hand?

thanks

What I stated was the version included in R5F27 was newer that what is in 2.6.22. Get the "tip", untar, make all and make install.

Ok. I got the "tip". Unfortunately, the make all and make install don't go exactly well. The make all gives a few errors towards the end and the
make install then just crashed and burned. Here is the end of the make all and the entire make install:

I needed to get the kernel source compiled and had to make some links to the /lib/modules/2.6.18-chw-13/build in order to get the make all get to that point.

Any ideas where to go from here?

I have tried doing the make all and make install in the /usr/src/ as someone had success in another post. This didn't work.

I also followed the linuxtv.org wiki using mercurial to grab the modules and update the headers before the make. This didn't get me any further either.

Am I missing something? I imagine its something simple, but I am just not seeing it.
