2) build the dvb-kernel sucessfuly without errors

3)open file insmod-bt8xx.sh and enable only DST card

/lib/modules/.. and try to insmod it, i sucessfuly
insmod videodev.o but fial to insmode btty.o, it gives
unresolved error.

I insmod it with this command
"insmod btty.o.gz i2c_hw=1 card=0x68"

can any one help me

Without bttv loaded properly, you can't get anywhere.

I'd need to see the errors in the build. The patches have to be correct.
There are different v4l ones in the bytesex.org bttv patchesa dir.

It's a little bit easier with 2.6.0-test7, you don't need the v4l
patches (or any patches, just dvb-kernel out of CVS).

You did get bttv from bytesex.org? I remember using the version
in the snapshot directory ... Any version you use must have
bttv-if.c with the ic2_hw MODULE_PARAM.
what about forking the relevant bttv files into the LinuxTV CVS repository and adding a insmod-twinhan.sh script in the build-2.4 directory to avoid this kind of problem? As soon the stable bttv release and the dvb-bt8xx code are in sync we can remove these files again...
