vpb-driver for Debian
---------------------

Please see ./README for a description of the vpb-driver software.

The Debian vpb-driver source package provides four packages,

 1) vpb-tools, which the provides the binary utilities.
 1) libvpb0, which the provides the userspace library runtime.
 1) libvpb-dev, which the provides the userspace library build deps.
 2) vpb-driver-source, which provides the source for the kernel modules

The vpb-driver-source package can be used in several ways,

 - With the help of the module-assistant package.  This is the simplest
   and recommended way.  Simply run: `m-a a-i vpb-driver`, or

   # module-assistant auto-install vpb-driver

 - Using the make-kpkg(1) command provided by the kernel-package Debian
   package. This will produce a corresponding vpb-driver-modules package for
   the Debian kernel-image package that you are using.
   See the "modules_image" section of the make-kpkg(1) man page.

 - Changing to the /usr/src/modules/vpb-driver/ directory and building as
   the README file instructs using "make; make install". This will build
   and install a module specific to the system you are building on and is
   not under control of the packaging system.

The OpenLine firmware blob is not included in this package.  If you have
one of these cards you can obtain it directly from Voicetronix using the
fetch-openline-firmware script in /usr/share/vpb-driver, which will install
it in the correct location for immediate use.
