Unpack the kernel sources like usual. Then get yourself the newest stable i2c and lm_sensors tarballs from http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/download.html. It's the 2.6.1 for both packages. Unpack them and read the manual. This will tell you how to patch your kernel sources. Do the i2c patch first and then the lm_sensors patch. If you are interested in a fresh bttv version, get the tarball from http://bytesex.org/bttv/. There are also patches for the 2.4.x kernels available. There's a patch for btaudio too. Patch the kernel. NOW you can configure and build it. Don't deactivate i2c. It is needed for both, lm_sensors and bttv. BTW: I did it myself yesterday. It worked fine. Berthold Cogel
