I would be disposed to do it bad. The main thing is, it works ;)

But unfortunately, I don't understand what you mean. Or how do i have to 
do it.

Sadly, i have no clue about Makefiles and compilerflags.

I build the headers with make-kpkg kernel_headers and installed those.
Then, i set DVBDIR to /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.0-test9

But, it also does not work. I think make-kpkg is not able to seperate 
the userspaceheaders from the kernelspaceheaders.

Where is the path to the userspaceheaders in my kernelsource. There must 
be one?

Then, it should be no problem to -I these headers...


Thank you
