- -As CVS is mostly used by developers it tracks the latest -rc kernel -and may not compile with older kernels, not even with the last stable release. -We provide a patchset for the latest stable kernel -in the download area.
- -To get the latest sources from CVS you need to issue the following commands:
- -cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv login

If you want to check out the current drivers for the 2.4 kernel, please use:
-cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv co -P -rlinux_2_4 dvb-kernel

This is similar to DVB but uses a different CVSROOT:
-cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/video4linux login
-cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.linuxtv.org:/cvs/video4linux co -P v4l-kernel
- -You can later update your sources by running:
-cvs -z3 up -dP
- -You can browse the files in the CVS repository with viewcvs. You can also -download on-the-fly generated tarballs, but please use this feature sparingly -as it puts a high load on the machine. If you find yourself downloading the -newest sources regularly you should consider using anon-cvs access, as described above.
-To browse the video4linux CVS select the "v4l" tree in the upper right -of the viewcvs page, or use the link below.
