Alas, the saa7134 in 2.6.18 is too old for my card :-(
The driver in 2.6.18 supports card numbered 1 to 95.
My card (medion) has number 96 :-(

Putting saa7134 from a 2.6.23 kernel into 2.6.18 doesn't work.

Oh, this is unfortunate.  In that case, the "easiest" way to get your
card to work may be to use the 2.6.23 kernel.  Of course, you'd have
to take care of security fixes etc yourself...

Is there anything special I have to do to use a vanilla kernel
on a Centos 5.1 machine? Nothing special hardware (except for
the TV card), /boot and / on software RAID 1.

The centos 2.6.18 kernel is build with 1084 (!) patches,
I assume they are there for a reason.

I stopped doing kernel compilations around RedHat 9...
