Works fine for me.
Works fine now, breaks tomorrow. We had the dvb kernel module package long enough and I was so glad when the dvb drivers finally went into the upstream kernel. I'm not going to maintain another kernel module package again. I just tried a vdr built with the multiproto headers with normal dvb drivers. Doesn't work. That means vdr 1.5.13 is the last version I can build useful packages for atm. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Development V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
