Please check out the dvb-kernel tree in CVS. Since this driver is pretty 
new we did not yet merged it into the release source tree.

You'll have to check it out using:

$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@linuxtv.org:/cvs/linuxtv co dvb-kernel
$ cd dvb-kernel/

now you'll have to apply the bt878 patches in directory 
linux/drivers/media/dvb/bt8xx/patches/ to your kernel source, then 
enable bttv video4linux support and rebuild+install your kernel.

Now, for 2.4 kernels:

$ cd build-2.4/
$ make clean && ./getlinks && make

to load the drivers:

$ ./insmod.sh

please report any occuring problems,
good luck,

Holger
