Thanks. Yes, I just don't know yet on what CVS repository to use.

That's nice to hear.

Yes, but the detection should be runtime, instead of compile-time. If
/dev/dvb/adapter%d/demux0 is not found, we should check if /dev/ost/demux%d
is found. The kernel headers from the pre-NEWSTRUCT driver will have
to be copied to the dvbsak tree, and I think some of the functions
actually talking to the device will have to be moved into separate files, to
avoid header clashes.

Holger, is there any runtime way of checking the version of the driver?

Cheers,
Juha
