Hi, I wrote a PKGBUILD for the driver package from TBS (www.tbsdtv.com) for their dvb cards. I split packaging for modules and firmware and patched the sources to install the modules to /lib/modules/kernelversion/updates and the firmware to /lib/firmware/updates to avoid overwriting existing files. It's the first time I'm building kernel modules and there are two things I'm not sure about: - Are the files under /lib/firmware/updates found and do they have precedence? - Is "depmod -a" after install, upgrade and removal the right approach to rebuild the module dependencies? Regards, Bernhard
