Help please..

I am running SuSe 10.0 64-bit
kernel 2.6.13-15-x86_64
and I am trying to get my hauppauge 150 to work.

I am trying to compile the drivers for IVTV 0.4.4 and keep receiving this error. Can some please enlighten me as to what the **** I'm doing wrong?

/tmp/ivtv-0.4.4 # make &&make install
make -C driver all
make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/ivtv-0.4.4/driver'
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.13-15.8-default/build M=/tmp/ivtv-0.4.4/driver modules
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj/x86_64/default'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `modules'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj/x86_64/default'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/ivtv-0.4.4/driver'

I can provide more infor if needed.

Do you have your kernel source installed? If so, does the directory mentioned above exist? If so, does it contain a makefile (or Makefile)? If so, does that makefile contain a rule for "modules"?

My first guess would be that you don't have your kernel source installed, and that the directory mentioned does not even exist.

Kernel sources are definately installed.

The target does exist - :cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj/x86_64
:/usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj/x86_64 # ls
. .. default
:/usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj/x86_64 # cd default
:/usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj/x86_64/default # ls
. .. Module.symvers

Obviously this directory (the target) t\does not contain a makefile. I am attempting to make && makeinstall from here: "/tmp/ivtv-0.4.4 # make && make install"

other ideas?

OK.. for all you kernel buffs..

As I am trying to make and makeinstall I receive the error in the post above. haertig asks a valid question to which I reply with the following..

In the directory /usr/src/ there are similar directories, which are -

/usr/src # ls
. kernel-modules linux-2.6.13-15-obj linux-obj
.. linux linux-2.6.13-15.8 packages
ATI linux-2.6.13-15 linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj

Here is the contents of the directory ivtv is targeting the make && makeinstall..
:/usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15.8-obj/x86_64/default # ls
. .. Module.symvers

Here is the contents of the similar directory which contains the make file, etc..
:/usr/src/linux-2.6.13-15-obj/x86_64/default # ls
. .. .config Makefile arch include include2 scripts

How do I fix this so I can do the make && makeinstall?

I already checked the Makefile of ivtv-0.4.4 and did not see any reference to this

I'm not sure how SUSE handles it's kernel sources. The source would be under /usr/src, but I don't understand the reference to obj in the directory naming. And what's the distinction between 15-obj and 15.8-obj? I've never used SUSE ... and it shows! I'm afraid you'll need a SUSE person to straighten this out for you.

Below is my Debian system's /usr/src layout (only showing the kernel stuff). You can see I only have one kernel source directory, namely linux-source-2.6.14. Not that this info helps you in the slightest.
