lirc modules needing complete kernel source

2006-10-03 Thread garrone
I'm thinking of giving lirc a try. I find I need the lirc-modules-source package because lirc_dev is absent. The package in dselect says that kernel sources must be installed to compile these modules. Why cannot they simply be compiled with headers, like the nvidia module for example? Peter

I was asking this because with the new nvidia drivers, you don't need to use AIGLX anymore. GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is directly implemented in the driver. Therefore you can use direct rendering and gain much performance. -Pascal On 3 Oct 2006 05:49:33 GMT, Jack Malmostoso [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks a lot. Got apt-get update working again. However, at least for i386, the Debian repositories still (3 October 17.10 UTC) contain a faulty 0.6.46. Running apt-get upgrade the wrong status is obtained again, so that the procedure of downgrading to 0.6.45 must be repeated regards
