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.
I got rid of the conditionals... They aren't needed, and are only
causing problems. We already have some other modules in the inst_foo
section that aren't always present, so this should be safe as well.
Mauro, please pull from:

-remove test for CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV to set inst_video += videodev.ko
