My instructions were intended to be related to the CDK library, available
at http://www.vexus.ca/CDK.html. In my case the tarball carried no version
info in its name and was simply called cdk.tar.gz.

Of course....

This header file from the kernel source tree has got nothing to do with
the CDK library that is meant here.

Of course.... You have no way out as to install the CDK library as
described.

Does tuxzap confirm changed channels? (Status messages in the lower area
of its desktop window, and at the xterm where it was called from.) Or are
there error messages? When you click at several channel entries in a quick
sequence, does the black selection bar follow immediately or are there
delay times of 2..3 secs?
