Epiphan VGA2USB Module Installation
Download the drivers at http://www.epiphan.com/downloads/linux/
For example, for an Ubuntu 10.10 you should download this driver.
You should choose the driver according with some characteristics of your computer and operating system. Run the following commands in a shell to know some of them:
Kernel release: uname -r Architecture: uname -m
You can follow the instructions in the README file to complete the driver installation.
Run the following commands in a shell (requires being root - sudo will not work) to use the driver like a modprobe.
make install -m 0644 vga2usb.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/video/ echo options vga2usb v4l_num_buffers=2 v4l_err_on_nosignal=0 > /etc/modprobe.d/vga2usb.conf echo softdep vga2usb pre: videodev usbvideo post: >> /etc/modprobe.d/vga2usb.conf depmod -a
If the file vga2usb.ko is not present, run make first and repeat the commands above.
Restart the computer to load the driver, or execute as root modprobe vga2usb
