The patch has already gone upstream to Linux Kernel 2.6.15, which should be released before the end of the year. In order to install the driver on YOUR machine, without the need to compile the 2.6.15 kernel, you can install the new drivers from v4l-dvb cvs: http://linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/How_to_build_from_CVS Cheers, Michael Krufky
