hi, i am using the siemens dvb-c card, but got problems to start the card after the restart of the computer (suse 9.1 prof, kernel 2.6.4-52) start the driver with modprobe dvb-ttpci at startup suse (driver comes with suse) frist downloaded the software and the firmware. put the firmware into "build-2.6" directory and typed "make" linux:/home/wolfgang/linuxtv/linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1/build-2.6 # make [ -L saa7146_video.c ] || ./getlinks make -C /lib/modules/2.6.4-52-default/build SUBDIRS=/home/wolfgang/linuxtv/linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1/build-2.6 make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.4-52' CHK include/linux/version.h *** Warning: Overriding SUBDIRS on the command line can cause *** inconsistencies make[2]: ?arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s? ist bereits aktualisiert.
