[linux-dvb] A few hints for TT-Budget with SuSE 8.2 please

[Al Bogner <linuxtv@ml03q3.pinguin.uni.cc>]

I try a 2nd time to install the driver for a Technotrend 
Systemtechnik SAA7146 (TT-Budget CI, more details see below) with a 
SuSE 8.2-system and have a few questions before I start. When I 
tried to install the driver a few weeks ago, I ended with "insmod 
errors: dvb-ttpci.o: init_module: No such device". This time I try 
it with another pc and I would be glad, if you could give me some 
hints.

Should I use kernel 2.4.20-4GB from SuSE including all 
security-updates or 2.4.25 from kernel.org?

Kernel 2.4.25 was built with:

# Multimedia devices
#
CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=y

#
# Video For Linux
#
CONFIG_VIDEO_PROC_FS=y
CONFIG_I2C_PARPORT=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_BT848=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_PMS=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_BWQCAM=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_CQCAM=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_W9966=m

Which download should I try:
http://www.linuxdvb.tv/download/dvb-newstruct-20040227.tar.bz2 or 
http://www.linuxdvb.tv/download/dvb-20040227.tar.bz2 or another 
one?

I read 
http://hubertus.sandmann.bei.t-online.de/VDR_installieren.htm#DVB-Treiber 
and try to do what he suggests. Are there further howtos especially 
for SuSE-Systems? Should vdr-1.1.25-24 from SuSE 8.2 be ok or is it 
better to download a newer version for a 1st test?

Thanks a lot

Al
