[mythtv-users] Trouble with WinTV 401 Hauppage Card and LIRC (should be easy to answer)

[Jason Mcmillon]

Still no luck.  I had no idea that 'dialog' was referring to a
program.  I installed dialog, and even managed to install my kernel
source, although I couldn't figure out how to do it via axels rpms at
http://atrpms.net/dist/fc3/.  I got it from
ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/updates/3/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.11-1.35_FC3.src.rpm
installed it, and moved it to the right directory.

./setup.sh went just fine, but I got the following errors with make:

Obviously I am new to Linux.  What exactly am I doing wrong?

Thanks again...
