Ok, I managed to install all the 5 cards using devfs (by
changing MAX_NUM_DVB from dvb.h to 5)...
Problem now is that when doing "make rmmod" I get this...

/usr/src/linux/scripts/pathdown.sh: TOPDIR: parameter null
or not set
(       \
rmmod dvb;              \
rmmod dvb_frontend;     \
rmmod dvb_demux;        \
rmmod saa7146_v4l;      \
rmmod saa7146_core;     \
rmmod tuner;            \
rmmod stv0299;          \
rmmod tda8083;          \
rmmod SP8870;           \
rmmod L64781;           \
rmmod VES1820;          \
rmmod VES1893;          \
rmmod dmxdev;           \
rmmod dvb_filter;       \
rmmod videodev;         \
rmmod i2c-core;         \
rmmod dvb_net;          \
rmmod dvbdev;           \
)
i2c-core: Device or resource busy


the output of subsequent lsmod gives:

Module                  Size  Used by
saa7146_core               0   0  (deleted)

rtc                     5600   0  (autoclean)


saa... seems to be "deleted" (???) and i2c-core, even if
used by 0, reported to be busy... (!!!)
Any one of the driver developpers might know the problem?
Could it be the fact that I changed that define in dvb.h?
