HI Holger, HI Michael, HI ALL

Network Packet reception success!
(and some bugs with v4l2)

I tested dvb-ttpci and budget-patch on 2.4 and 2.6,
with focus on dvb_net and with conjunction with tv-capture
saa7134.

Generally, on 2.4 saa7134 can't work with dvb-kernel. v4l2
patches cause dvb-ttpci to crash on insmod

On 2.6, dvb-kernel makelinks breaks in-kernel saa7134, 
saa7134 refuses to insmod due to some unresolved ir_* symbols

saa7134: Unknown symbol ir_extract_bits
saa7134: Unknown symbol ir_input_init
saa7134: Unknown symbol ir_input_nokey
saa7134: Unknown symbol ir_input_keydown

OK, leaving saa7134, I turned on to network testing

I have taken into account the recommendations for packet 
continuity check. It printed no logs so I conclude that
DMA is working perfect.

However, continuity code counter was long time not modified,
I have to adapt it for the changed structs etc, the patch is here:

The discontinuous picture on 2.6.0-test8 with makelinks 
on mplayer (jerky motion) is relatated to mplayer/distribution. 
Reception from dvb is good and continuous.


The best achievement is the packet reception issue (CRC??), 
with the following patch I was able to get 100% packet reception
on budget-patch as far as it could be seen with ethereal!!!!

Without this patch, 10-20% packets are lost!
