Here's the nitty gritty of a few emails he sent me on the subject: the cx88-cards.c file referenced PLLTYPE_DT* which are not defined anywhere in the kernel source... they are defined in cx22702.h in the package from uqld ... i copied this defines across... then cx88-dvb.c complains of implicit definition of cx22702_create() function... the prototype for this function is also in the file in the uqld package cx22702.h.... neither the prototype nor the actual definition for this function exists anywhere in the vanilla 2.6.10 kernel tree... --- there is a particular case in the cx88-dvb.c file that calls cx22702_create();... this isn't defined... i tried to leech bits from the uqld version... but they have dicked with naming etc prolly to comply more with kernel naming conventions (and common sense)... so i chose to comment out the case where this function gets called instead :) this isn't a good idea as it will stop that card working.. but then it obviously isn't going to anyway :) /usr/src/linux-2.6.10/drivers/media/video/cx88/cx99-dvb.c (i may have gotten that wrong since i typed it from memory but that file name :)) --- ahh also.. the undeclared bits... PLLTYPE_DT* i copied them from the uni qld include file.. from cx22702.h which says: #define PLLTYPE_DTT7592 1 #define PLLTYPE_DTT7595 2 #define PLLTYPE_DTT7579 3 i randomly inserted these into +/usr/src/linux-2.6.10/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/cx22702.h after the #include +<linux/dvb/frontend.h> -- linux.conf.au 2005 - http://linux.conf.au/ - Birthplace of Tux April 18th to 23rd - http://linux.conf.au/ - LINUX Canberra, Australia - http://linux.conf.au/ - Get bitten!
