[linux-dvb] margi2

["daniel schneider" <dcsst28@hotmail.com>]

hello.

i'm not sure if this is the correct mailing list, but...

i've been trying to get my margi dvd-to-go decoder card to work with RedHat 
linux 9 and kernel 2.4.20-18.9.

i noticed right away that the links for the margi driver do not work... so 
i'm assuming the driver is no longer being developed?  i found the margi2 
module in CVS, and i checked it out while in the pcmcia-cs-3.2.4 directory.  
i then copied the appropriate file from the margi2 directory into the 
pcmcia-cs-3.2.4 directory.  i successfully compiled and installed the 
drivers.  when i insert the card into the pcmcia slot, i get an error about 
the non-GPL license and the kernel being tainted as a result of loading one 
of the modules (the first one, whichever that one is).

so, is the linux driver for the margi dvd-to-go decoder card a dead issue 
now?  noone is maintaining it?  is there a fix for this problem of tainting 
the kernel?  i'd work on it myself, but i'm just a stupid engineer...  does 
anyone have answers??
