Hi Christophe, that are very good news. Can you please do the following: Check out the latest v4l-dvb from hg, apply your changes, check if it still works and send the output of hg diff to this list along with your Signed-Off-By-line (see also README.patches is v4l-dvb). Then it will go into the kernel quite soon. Patrick.
