Just to post that I have total success with the RTL2831U kernel drivers and watching with Kaffeine.
I took the source from realtek, and added a makefile so it will compile as a standalone. This needed a bit of dirtyness in the form of copying several files that the modules depend upon from the kernel source to the module directory. It still throws up a few warnings when compiling, mostly to do with redefining things (to be expected really) and unsigned constants, so the realtek code needs some clean up. I am using Kubuntu Gutsy. I have put a .txt file in the Doc directory showing what is needed so it can be easily changed for other kernels. The package is availble from here. http://coronach.adsl24.co.uk/code/rtl2831u_dvb-usb_v0.0.1.tar.bz2 Just unpack, make, sudo make install and it should work on Ubuntu Gutsy as is. I have tested it on 2 Kubuntu i386 systems and it works. I know this is a nasty hack, but it works and the quality and responsiveness seems a lot better that it does in windows. I would be interested if anyone else gets this to work. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
