[mythtv-users] Problems making test_ioctl for PVR-250

[Harry Orenstein]

W (or do you prefer Jason?),

I had this problem too (also on Mandrake 9.1).  All you have to do
is change the first line of the Makefile to point to /usr/src/linux instead
of /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build

Not sure what version of Linux this path would be good for, as it looks
like make chokes on the embedded uname.  This fix worked for me
though since on Mandrake 9.1 the .config file is in the indicated
directory.

Hope this helps!
