I just tried testing the new HG branch of v4l-dvb with linux kernl 2.6.16-rc5 and have come across a few minor issues.

1)  If I have any dvb modules built in the kernel before building v4l-dvb outside the tree, the symbols seem to conflict when trying to load the HG modules.  Fix: Disable all DVB modules in kernel before building dvb modules outside the tree.

2) After doing "make install", there is no videodev.ko in /lib/mod/{kernel}/kernel/drivers/media/video/videodev.ko.  Something is wrong with the Makefile where it is not installing videodev.ko.  If videodev.ko does not exist, I get the following error:

saa7146_vv: Unknown symbol video_unregister_device
saa7146_vv: Unknown symbol video_device_alloc
saa7146_vv: Unknown symbol video_register_device
saa7146_vv: Unknown symbol video_usercopy
saa7146_vv: Unknown symbol video_device_release


Thanks,


The problem with videodev.ko not being installed appears to be in this wrapped statement in the Makefile:

#ifeq ($(CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV),m)
inst_video += videodev.ko
#endif

I have commented out the ifeq/endif lines and everything seems to build and install perfectly now.  What I can not figure out is why the other wrapped statements work as expected except this one.

Best Regards,
