Good. > Who can tell me how difficult it would be to get the latest v4l-dvb code to > compile on the 2.6.11 kernel that Fedora 4 ships with? Nearly impossible. (note the use of the word, 'nearly') You would have to implement backwards-compat for the older kernel... I enabled backwards compat for the dvb tree all the way through 2.6.12 -- any earlier isnt worth it -- just use a newer kernel. > Is there somebody who can help me with this please? The sources in the v4l-dvb tree are backwards compatable with _vanilla_ kernels through 2.6.12 ... SOME dvb drivers will build and work properly with kernels as old as 2.6.10, but no older... The same goes for the v4l modules. However: the hybrid drivers that require parts from both v4l and dvb sybsystems will not work properly with any kernel prior to 2.6.12 -- Michael Krufky _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
