RE: HELP: Installing comedi the "Debian Way"...

Jan,

I ended up using debian 2.6.8 kernel source with comedi-0.7.69 and
comedilib-0.7.22 tarballs and all is well.

Where/Whom do I report the bug too?

Eric

It seems so. I've just checked, and I get the same results. Probably
this package is not ready for 2.6 kernels.
I'd recommend to use the cvs version with the debian/rules patch I
posted to this list in january and file a bug against the comedi-source
package.

Regards,
Jan
