Hi,
I would like to install the em28xx-new driver using checkinstall so that to have a .deb package which is more easily managed. In particular I want to be able to remove it if necessary (this driver is "self contained" so installing and removing it does not modify the other installed packages, is right?)

I'm using kubuntu 8.04.1 (kernel version 2.6.24-21-generic) and I've already installed the kernel source package which I've decompress with the following command:
sudo tar -xvjf linux-source-2.6.24.tar.bz2

Then I've downloaded the em28xx-new repository in /usr/src directory using hg.
So this is the output of ls -all /usr/src:
drwxrwsr-x 10 root src      4096 2008-08-29 21:06 .
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root     4096 2007-11-17 17:08 ..
drwxr-sr-x 21 root src      4096 2008-08-29 23:05 em28xx-new

drwxr-xr-x 20 root root     4096 2008-08-26 20:08 linux-headers-2.6.24-21
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 2008-08-26 20:08 linux-headers-2.6.24-21-generic
drwxr-xr-x 23 root root     4096 2008-08-25 22:45 linux-source-2.6.24
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 46893923 2008-08-25 22:47 linux-source-2.6.24.tar.bz2
drwxr-xr-x  7 root root     4096 2007-02-04 15:12 rpm
drwxr-sr-x  7 root src      4096 2008-07-29 21:03 v4l-dvb-experimental
Now, if I'm not wrong, I just need to move to the em28xx-new directory, run sudo make and the sudo checkinstall. Is it correct?

When I run sudo make, I've the following output:
rm -rf Module.symvers;
make -C /lib/modules/`if [ -d /lib/modules/2.6.21.4-eeepc ]; then echo 2.6.21.4-eeepc; else uname -r; fi`/build SUBDIRS=`pwd` modules

What about those WARNING? Should I fix something before continuing?

Thank you,
