Thanks for your replies, but again : I don't want to use the latest kernel but 
RedHat stock kernel. The reason is that I would like to build DVB RPMs and 
upload them to FreshRPMs.

Like me, many users are so tired of compiling again and again... It takes time 
and does not always succeed as you know... So anytime I can use or build an 
RPM, I do it.

Do you know if DVB works with a stock RedHat kernel? To me, it is just a 
./configure problem or a simple hack to add to the makefile. Did anyone 
compile DVB with a stock RedHat kernel or not? This is my only question.

It seems obvious that DVB lacks a good configure script. Do I miss something? 
This is the first time I encouter an installation script without a 
./configure first. Is this usual with kernel modules? I am pretty new, maybe 
I miss something.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
