New issue 40 by mihelc...@gmail.com: Compile the VTuner linux driver
(https://code.google.com/p/vtuner/) for Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64
https://code.google.com/p/vtuner/issues/detail?id=40

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Install
Ubuntu server 14.04 x86_64

Prerequisites:
---------------

sudo apt-get install patchutils libproc-processtable-perl git mercurial
make gcc

Install DVB-Core:

sudo git clone git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git
cd media_build
sudo ./build
sudo make install

modprobe dvb_core
lsmod | grep dvb_core

I copy headers from dvb-core source to linux headers to avoid errors in
compiling.

cd ~/media_build/linux/drivers/media/dvb-core
sudo cp ./*.h /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r`/drivers/media/dvb-core/

VTuner linux driver:

sudo hg clone http://code.google.com/p/vtuner.linux-driver

Download patch kernel-3.10.patch from
https://code.google.com/p/vtuner/issues/detail?id=33
Download file "kernel-3.10.patch" to directory "vtuner.linux-driver"

cd vtuner.linux-driver
sudo patch < kernel-3.10.patch
sudo make KDIR=/usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r`
modinfo vtunerc.ko
sudo mkdir /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc
sudo cp vtunerc.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc
sudo depmod -a
sudo modprobe vtunerc

dmesg |tail -n7

Her is the error I get:

[61691.761646] vtunerc: Unknown symbol dvb_unregister_frontend (err -22)
[61691.761650] vtunerc: disagrees about version of symbol

Comment #1 on issue 40 by 789b...@free.fr: Compile the VTuner linux driver
hello

all that
"sudo git clone git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git
cd media_build
sudo ./build
sudo make install

modprobe dvb_core
lsmod | grep dvb_core"

it's not necessary.. and bad..
-----
just download http://packages.ubuntu.com/fr/trusty/linux-source-3.13.0

extract from /drivers/media/dvb-core > *.h

sudo cp ./*.h /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r`/drivers/media/dvb-core/

--

if modprobe don't work .. sudo insmod vtunerc.ko since /vtuner.linux-driver

for me.. like this .. Ubuntu server 14.04.2 x86_64 = vtuner ok

So just to clarify - was the last version of linux kernel sources to
include necessary tuner kernel module files was kernel 3.13 ? And they
they were removed for some reason? Or should they still be there in
kernel 3.19 (latest) and future?

e.g. We can't get from in here then?
