I am happy to see that you and Andrew were able to determine that the
problem with dvb_attach was due to an old version of module_init_tools,
however, I am also very interested to hear about what was wrong with the
vanilla 2.6.18-rc kernel, that lead you to install the newer modules
from linuxtv.org .

Richard Dale speaks of a problem that he had in 2.6.18-rc6 with his
DViCO card...

...Is this the same problem that you had experienced?  If not, could you
provide some more information?

I tried 2.6.18-rc6 on my hardware last night and saw no such
problems.... but if this is indeed a problem in 2.6.18, I'd like to find
it right away.

Thanks,

Michael Krufky
