I'm trying to do the following:
1) add the smi2021 driver for EasyCap Somagic usb frame grabbers
into the
kernel tree
2) compile the kernel with smi2021 as a module
3) build the rpm.
I got the driver from Jon Arne Jorgensen's kernel branch on github:
https://github.com/jonjonarnearne/smi2021
then tried to follow these instructions:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Building_a_custom_kernel
but the whole thing fails with this eror:
Patch100000: smi2021.patch

+ exit 1
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.sASN4F (%prep)
Please help, I'm at the end of my wits. Thanks!
You just have to put the new config option in one of the config* files
that's part of the kernel package git checkout itself - one that gets
included in the appropriate arch builds. If you want to build the
driver as a module for all arches, put CONFIG_VIDEO_SMI2021=m in
config-generic , for instance.
