I resolving problem ; installed new kernel 2.6.32-sabayon and your source .
In new kernel Avermedia driver installed properly
Why in kernel 2.6,31-sabayon is bugs

Code: Select all

darek@sabayon ~ $ eselect kernel list
Available kernel symlink targets:
  [1]   linux-2.6.31-sabayon *
  [2]   linux-2.6.32-gentoo-r5
  [3]   linux-2.6.32-sabayon

If you have installed the 2.6.32-sabayon kernel then the symlink should point to it, not to the 2.6.31-sabayon kernel. Therefore you need to do the following as root user in a Konsole/Terminal window:

Code: Select all

eselect kernel set 3

See SL Wiki article HOWTO: Upgrade kernel using genkernel.

and your source

It's not 'my' source. I'm not a Sabayon developer. I'm a forum moderator.

Why in kernel 2.6,31-sabayon is bugs

It might not be a bug, it might simply be that all the files required (Linux sources and headers) for the 2.6.31-sabayon kernel were not on your HDD. Did you try re-building the 2.6.31-sabayon kernel (see SL Wiki article HOWTO: Upgrade kernel using genkernel)?

I wanted to recompile the kernel 2.6.31 but it jumped me such errors;

When I wrote the "source" I thought about the package "linux-source "
