I recall Hans stating that supporting kernels earlier than 2.6.12 was not feasible. I can't remember the reasons why 2.6.12-2.6.15 are not supported. Check the linux-dvb and video4linux list archives. > The first problem I am running into is that 2.6.11 has no linux/mutex.h. That's probably because the non-spinning mutual exclusion mechanism was kernel semaphores way back then.
