For the kernel DVB drivers, that's correct. (I'm using that patch with 2.6.10 and previously with 2.6.8.1.) For drivers sourced from the LinuxTV site, it depends on the age of the drivers. The -kernel driver wasn't applicable without rejects to driver source from CVS when I last checked, which is why there are two versions of the patch; if the -linuxtv patch isn't cleanly applicable any more, then feel free to post a fixed-up patch :-) As usual with this kind of thing, testing whether the patch is applicable by using patch's --dry-run option is recommended. -- | Darren Salt | nr.
