I suppose i'm loading the correct modules, see below :


[root@localhost DVB]# cd build-2.6/
[root@localhost build-2.6]# ./insmod.sh load
Inserting DVB modules into kernel
FATAL: Module i2c-core not found.

No, i never mixed up kernel modules and dvb-kernel modules, each time  
i restart the machine before processing...Furthermore and to  
dissipate any doubt, yesterday i flushed out any trace of the linuxTV  
dvb-kernel driver from my system, removed the old 2.6.13-rc5 kernel  
source from "/usr/src" installed a fresh clean one, edited the file  
flexcop-reg.h in "/usr/src/linux/drivers/media/dvb/b2c2" as you  
recommended, compiled the kernel with his modules and restarted the  
computer, then :

# modprobe b2c2-flexcop-usb, plug device...with same results as if i  
use instead the linuxTV dvb-kernel


By the way, i will try next week my skystar-usb in a PC, to show what  
will be the result there. May be, I'm repeating somewhere the same  
unknown mistake that would lead to the same error message  
elsewhere...I'll let you know about that in the future.

If i have time, i will try also the more specific to ppc BenH-  
BitKeeper rsync kernel source tree. They include, patches that aren't  
in the official source and who knows, it could work.

Anyway, i would like to thanks you for your help and patience, as i'm  
somehow a newbie and i could miss something that i'm not be aware of.

If you have some hints or news. Don't hesitate.

Thanks
