My R5.5 HOWTO for the HD-PVR covers building v4l-dvb and may be of some help. However, it sounds like you have succeeded in building v4l, but have configuration troubles.

Yes, I've build v4l succesfully but thankyou for the excellent guide (and the references at the bottom is a great feature)
I lost track of where I were so I logged into the box today and did a "make" on v4l-dvb without making clean first. Now this was output:
Code:

Some warnings relating to the reg. and unreg. of the modules I guess.
Although it builds and it is "just" warnings, not errors, it made me curious.
I remember at one attempt the modprobe coughed upon the IR-common module not being able to load. I really dont know much about modules and builds but I think this might have to do with the modules' dependencies on other modules (?) And so the functionality of saa7146 and possibly other modules as well might fail because there is no IR-common. Maybe ?
(this might just be fixed with a make clean && make, I will try that)
If someone would give me some pointers on how to clean up this mess I've made of the drivers/modules I think I would be able to restore the system. But it might be a fat chance avoiding complete reinstall
I've got a bad feeling about just deleting files from
../kernel/drivers/media/dvb/ttpci/
and
../kernel/drivers/media/common/
So how to clean up ?
And / or
How can I figure out exactly which modules are needed ? (is this even possible for someone who is not familiar with this architecture?)
Maybe someone with a similar capture-card would be kind and send me the binaries for the different "original" .ko's from a R5.5 ? (bttv, saa7146, budget, ir-common, etc)
Thanks for listening
