Hi Ed, what distro are you using? You should only try one v4l-dvb release, the latest one. For that look at http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_install_DVB You'll need to download mercurial as tarball, build it as described in INSTALL. Take care to have python-devel installed. After checking out v4l-dvb (hg pull ...) make sure that you have the kernel sources installed and configured. Under RedHat/Fedora this is some kernel-*-devel package. Under SuSe it's kernel-source. You MUST have /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/* around. I had bad experience with SuSE 10.0 when trying to build v4l-dvb. Some drivers are too new and not able to build with older kernels any more. If the build fails for some driver (which you don't need), a dirty workaround is to comment out the corresponding CONFIG_... line in the /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/.config file.
