Ubuntu – Linux/autoconf.h not present

AVLD doesn't appear to be maintained anymore.

A similar video loopback package exists in the repositories which you can install - its called v4l2loopback-source.

Auto Install

First from a terminal, drop to a root shell

sudo su

If you havent installed kernel modules before with module-assistant run the following from a terminal

apt-get install module-assistant
m-a prepare
m-a update

Finally - download and install v4l2loopback

m-a a-i v4l2loopback
exit    

Manual Install

Download the package - once installed it can be found in /usr/src/v4l2loopback.tar.bz2

Copy the package to, for example your ~/Downloads folder compile and install

cd ~/Downloads
tar -xvf v4l2loopback.tar.bz2
cd modules/v4l2loopback
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe v4l2loopback

This will create a /dev/video0 or /dev/video1 (etc) device.

You have all the prerequisites installed already the problem is that in newer versions of the kernel the version.h file has been relocated. You can locate it with

locate version.h

Which most likely will come up with this location for your version.h file for that version of the kernel "/usr/src/linux-headers-4.2.0-18-generic/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h". But since we already know which kernel version and what distro you are using all you have to do is link the missing file to the folder and start the installation again.

sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.2.0-18-generic/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h /lib/modules/4.2.0-18-generic/build/include/linux/version.h

That should work. Unless AMD is still not supporting that version of the kernel.
