Hi, your kernel include files are screwed up. I'd suggest you to get a fresh kernel source tarball from http://www.kernel.org/, configure and install this one and then try again to build the driver. Holger M Rohini wrote: hi, I got the following error msg. when i had tried to install

Hi all, I would like to know if there is any limitation on the osd color palette. I know VDR just can use 16 palette deep colors and I'd like to know if it is a limitation of the linuxtv driver, an specific DVB card limitation or it is an specific VDR implementation. Thanks in advance. Marc R.
