Frank,

Thanks for the spot :)

Back in late 2004 when I started using MythTV I was in the same
situation, having to build drivers for my new Hauppauge Nova-T 90002
on 2.6.9.

Now I'm having to do it all over again for my TBS 6982 DVB-S2 card
(with  ljalves/linux_media) running a 4.2 kernel...

Cheers,
Nick
