I installed a rather new version of GNU/Linux (debian sarge), that had the /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware directory. 2. Then I fetched a new kernel from somewhere (www.kernel.org) and configured it thoroughly via "make config" (there is a README file in the kernel tar ball). 3. Then I fetched the dvb-kernel sources via CVS from linuxtv.org and moved them into the kernel source tree via ./makelinks 4. Then I configured the kernel again 5. Then I compiled and installed the kernel 6. Then I repeated steps 1. to 6. until it worked :-)) But the official way might be to load the dvb kernel modules after enabling DVB_CORE or so... I hope that little roadmap helped. :-) Bye Arne __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail Mobile Take Yahoo! Mail with you! Check email on your mobile phone. http://mobile.yahoo.com/learn/mail
