[linux-dvb] Re: b2c2 with opensky

[Vincenzo Di Massa <hawk78_it@yahoo.it>]

No, I'm using skystar2 with AliceSat.
I use plain 2.6.4 and 2.6.5.
My distribution is a really hacked Mandrake 9.2.
Does your setup include SMP or preemptible kernel? (you cannot use them
with linux dvb drivers)

Hope this helps!
