Hello,
I've just bought DVB card LifeView FlyDVB-T PCI, model LR301. I'd like
to run it under Linux. I've downloaded kernel 2.6.16.16 from kernel.org
and compiled support for saa7134. But it seems that my card is not in
supported list in kernel sources. This is my dmesg:

So I looked around and I found this using Google:
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0603.2/1471.html
It seems that my card _is_ supported but this patch is not included in
kernel 2.6.16.16. I tried to apply patch from above webpage but I
wasn't successful:
root@kompl:/usr/src/linux# patch -b -p1 < FlyDVB-T.patch
patching file Documentation/dvb/get_dvb_firmware
patch: **** malformed patch at line 7: use File::Temp qw/ tempdir /;
Can anybody help me please? How can I get my card working under Linux?
Thanks for help
Jiri
2 reasons why the patch might not appy:
1) Patches like this are intended to apply to the recent development
repository. It might be different from the kernel source.
2) Many mail tools reformat the text and i.e. replacing tabs by spaces
makes patch fail.
The solution is: go to www.linuxtv.org and get a snapshot from there.
You will also find instructions there.
Good luck
Hartmut
