great!!!

I completely agree with this, unfirtunately, as I completely forgot to
remove the kernel/drivers/media/video/videodev.o to kernels newer than
2.4.21-rc2-ac2 and as the compilation of new dvb-kernel worked perfectly
for 2.4.21-rc2-ac2 I thought it was due to a change in the kernel...

Sorry for the posts!!! But thank you very much,
