Driver install for Plextor ConvertX
« on: March 23, 2009, 02:42:33 am »
I am trying to install the driver for a CovertX Video recorder. I am a total novice with Linux but I have found a driver for it here http://home.comcast.net/~bender647/go7007/ and I was able to get past the first problem of fxload not being installed but have not been able find any help on the web on the following error.

I found the following web page that suggest that you type this "make install USE_UDEV=y" and it does appear to get further but i sill get an error message

install -m 0644 firmware/*.bin /lib/firmware
install -m 0644 firmware/ezusb/*.hex /lib/firmware/ezusb
install -m 0644 udev/wis-ezusb.rules /etc/udev/rules.d
install: cannot stat `udev/wis-ezusb.rules': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
