Installation</h2> <h3> <a NAME="ss2.1"></a>2.1 How to obtain Kvdr</h3> You can always download the actual version <a href="http://www.s.netic.de/gfiala/index.html">here</a>. <h3> <a NAME="ss2.2"></a>2.2 Requirements</h3> <ul> <li> You need at least one DVB-Card, the DVB-driver, the VDR-package and Kde.</li> </ul> <ul> <li> For fullscreen-switching have a 800x600 modeline in your XF86Config file, for NTSC a 640x480 one. (The first one found is automatically choosed, should have the frequency of your choice).</li> </ul> <ul> <li> To get sound handling working get and install alsa (amixer).</li> </ul> <h3> <a NAME="ss2.3"></a>2.3 Compilation and installation</h3> In order to compile and install Kvdr on your system, type the following in the base directory of the Kvdr distribution: <blockquote> <pre><tt>% ./configure % make % make install</tt></pre> </blockquote> Since Kvdr uses <pre>autoconf</pre> you should have not trouble compiling it. Should you run into problems please report them to the the author at <a href="mailto:gfiala (at) s (dot) netic (dot) de">Guido</a> <br> <h3> <a NAME="ss2.3"></a>2.4 Installation details</h3> <p><br>First, get the latest dvb-driver and install it. (of course ;-) <br>Compile vdr (make REMOTE=LIRC) and copy the channels.conf, timers.conf and keys.conf in the VideoDirectory you may use. <p>The rest is the ordinary "./configure; make; make install;" <br>process. <p>(just tested at a Suse6.4-Linux at Intel-P2-hardware, no idea what will happen elsewhere...) <p><b>For a quick test, you can now simply start the vdr-daemon in a terminal (of course you have to load the dvb-drivers first and launch kvdr.</b> <p>cd DVB/driver <br>make insmod <br>cd VDR <br>./vdr -v VideoDirectory -d <br>kvdr <p><b>For a sophisticated installation follow the vdr manual.</b> <h3>2.5 WARNING</h3> Because of the open SVDRP port you should not run vdr in an open environment (suggest using a firewall). Also, because the DVB-card does directly write to physical grafics memory it can possibly crash your x-Server or your entire System if the frame buffer address is incorrectly specified or reported by the X-server's DGA extension (this is applicable for all overlay displaying cards). <br> <hr><a href="index-3.html">Next</a><a href="index-1.html"> Previous </a><a href="index.html#toc2">Contents</a> </body> </html>
