Ok, so I think I've managed to do this, by editing some source files. I'm still hoping there is a clean way to do this, though. So now I have all the *.ko files in /home/kls/vdr/DVB-v4l-dvb.2005-12-02/v4l, but I can't seen to find out how to properly load them. There used to be an 'insmod.sh' script before the v4l/dvb merge, but that's no longer there. Does anybody know how to properly load the *.ko files? Note that I do _not_ want to do "make install", because I want to be able to have several driver versions in their own directories, and want to switch between these by simply placing a symlink. Therefore I need a way to load and unload the modules from a given driver directory, without copying anything to /lib/modules/... Klaus
