it seems that the following works for him:

c++  -g -O2 -L../../../libdvb/src/si            ../../../libdvb/DVB.o                   ../../../libdvb/devices.o               ../../../libdvb/OSD.o tuxview.o interface2.o common.o gtvscreen2.o 
-lsi                            -lpthread                       -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm               -lXxf86dga                      -lXxf86vm                -o tuxview


I'll see how I can persuade automake to do it this way.
