I did not have the time to prepare patches that bring 2.6 to the latest 
dvb-kernel CVS. It think it's a bug I already fixed.

If you want a 2.6 kernel with dvb-kernel CVS sources, you can use the 
"makelinks" script to replace the in-kernel driver with the ones from 
CVS. README-2.6 has an explanation.

Nevertheless, I'll send you a patch when the next patchset is ready.

I really don't like to hear that... ;-) I'm going to install kvdr on my 
2.6 machine, so I can see what's going wrong.

No. dvb-ttpci in 2.4 was one monolithic block for saa7146, full-featured 
and budget dvb cards. Now, saa7146 does the basic saa7146 handling, 
saa7146_vv does the video handling for full-featured cards, dvb-ttpci is 
the dvb backend to saa7146. alps_bsrv2 has been replaced by the more 
generic ves1x93 driver. Everything is fine. 8-)

For bleeding edge CVS development with 2.6, use the "makelinks" scripts 
as I already said above.

Thanks for testing!
