3 years ago resolved in latest media_build (branch extra) use install.sh for compiling/installation
Tested with 5.8, 5.10, 5.11 kernel (with proprietary NVidia GPU driver). Ubuntu 21.10 also must work.

3 years ago I executed the script, got "V4L drivers installation done" then reboot but it didn't install the driver. Is there some thing I missed ?

3 years ago Important: I installed my running kernel from here : https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline And I have this warning when running the script : WARNING: You do not have the full kernel sources installed.

3 years ago I managed to make the driver work by these steps :
git clone -b extra https://github.com/tbsdtv/media_build
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media.git -b latest ./media
cd media_build
make dir DIR=../media
./install
But still, it prevented the Nvidia driver to work properly. Is there a way to make the nvidia driver work properly again, without installing a new kernel ?

3 years ago first restore kernel module packages (first time you owerwrite media modules)

3 years ago I basically have the same issue. the driver installs but then you loose for example /dev/dri, and that means no more intel gpu. crazycal69, would you be so kind as to provide what would be the proper sequence of commands to restore those kernel module packages? I tried various combinations and always ending up in a f**ked up kernel :(. Your expertise would be more than welcomed.

Can I please ask for some details? The link you posted is not pointing to anything. For me also the driver compiles, but whenever that happens the /dev/dri folder gets removed. and for the love of god i have not managed to find a way to recover it.

3 years ago @dorinilut link corrected. But it wasn't related to /dev/dri, my issue was related to the gpu driver.
I read the suggestion of downgrading the kernel to a version prior than 5.8 to not having problems with the graphic card driver, but I haven't been successful doing so. I've tried multiple old kernel version but had system won't boot.
My OS : Ubuntu 21.10 My PCI : Skystar 2 express hd (SAA7160)
What should I do ?
