install.sh still not working after installing kernel from source

[treii28]

I tried installing using the install script but no devices showed up. After doing some sniffing through the issues and reading through what the script was trying to do, I found the problem was that the 4.14.92+ kernel (latest from the stretch repositories) apparently didn't have the source headers needed by the install script.
So I went and grabbed the linux kernel source code and build a version of 4.14.95+ from scratch, re-ran the install script, verified the modules are built in the various dkms directories but aplay -l still shows no pi-zero hat.

I'm not even sure where to begin looking for further problems. lsmod shows no seeed-voicecard module. The /etc/modules and /boot/config.txt have the correct entries. The service file appears to be installed and a log file is being generated when it tries to run (which doesn't seem to tell me anything useful)

I made sure raspi-config has spi and i2c enabled. I've tried lsmod - no seed modules in the list. I've tried restarting the service. I've rebooted more times than I care to count.

[treii28]

at first inspection, it appears the modules aren't being installed properly in /lib/modules/{version} - what do I need to add to get the dependencies set up properly?
I manually added them under ....{version}/kernel/sound/soc/codecs and ran depmod and it seems to be working now. Is that the correct thing to do or is there a better way to do it?

[Pillar1989]

It's all working. It looks good!

Maybe I encounter with a same issue which you have.
Could you tell me the detail information about resolving the problem?
Thanks a lot for you!

BTW, my issue is as following link:
#134

[diyfr]

thanks @treii28
more precisely (for newbies ) :
Copy all .ko files founded in
/var/lib/dkms/seed-voicecard/0.3/{KERNEL}/armv7l/module/
in
/lib/modules/{KERNEL}/kernel/sound/soc/codecs
Exist a minimal two versions of your kernel (Sample on my Rpi3 and :4.14.79+ 4.14.79-v7+)
run depmod and reboot..

[Pillar1989]

I will close this issue, the later you still have questions, you can reopen it
