The dvb-kernel thing (in my opinion) ist far away from the quality of 
the old 2.4 "DVB" driver (stability, liveview, diseqc).

I found it very confusing what happens with the DVB driver lately. 
First i heard that the old (for me very stable) DVB tree is obsolete, 
what means that no further development is done for it. Further 
development is only done in the dvb-kernel (which contains now both, 
2.4 and 2.6) tree. Now the things are changing again, dvb-kernel is now 
only 2.6 and... what does now happen with the DVB Tree?

From my point of view (i'm not involved in the DVB development in any 
way) this is more then confusing. I've get the impression that most of 
the energy is wasted in strutural changes instead of making the hole 
thing more stable (which i think is the major thing to complain about 
the DVB driver).

Tom.
