[linux-dvb] Problem compiling linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1

[Gael Beaudoin]

Hello :)

I'm trying to compile the linux tv dvb drivers but I keep having this errors :

-------------------------------------

-------------------------------------

I tried on two pc, one using kubuntu kernel 2.6.12, the other running kubuntu kernel 2.6.12-k7-smp

Any ideas ?

Thank you !

I compiled latest v4l-dvb CVS and it works perfectly.
Thank you, thank you very much for your work!

Now I can enjoy my dvb hardware on linux!
