[linux-dvb] DVB driver or scart or hardware Problem?

[Ronny Frankowski <lini-linux@web.de>]

I have a Siemens DVB-C (D121 Rev. 1) to establish added, with the purpose a 
VDR with Slackware 8,1 Kernel 2,4,20 (inclusive necessary module support). I 
loaded the driver siemens_dvb-0.9.4-2002-06-23 as described then put on I the 
DEVICES and led make in more driver draw-eat transmitted out. Everything i.O. 
to there. A make insmod brought me the following errors.

Thus decide I the newest driver linuxtv-dvb-1.0.0-pre2 to use oneself. There a 
make ran insmod korekt.

--------------------------------------------------------
But at the Scart at the TV it did not flicker only briefly and more! 
Thus decide I the whole times under XP to test itself. 
But the TV program with 99 CPU extent of utilization did not start there and 
more! 
Also another PC did not help anything. 
I tested the map today with Win95 ran there on the PC all channels however on 
the TV only black (different televisions rehearsed). 
But a test pattern read yourself on the TV with the Windows software 
represent. 
The technical support of Siemens guessed/advised me to new Technotrend 
drivers. 
As I explained that a condition alone Linux VDR will am meant it, could also 
be present defectively on the map. 
Not should a reference at the TV load to be seen to have with the driver under 
Linux? Probably. 

Now is the map defective? 
Or did I survey an error? 
Are grateful over each advice! 
Test pattern over Scart comes now also not more, defectively? 
If I would try Videochinch, do I come thereby to the same suppl.-smooth-eat? 
Which happens if I videochin take?
