[vdr] sucess with 2.6 kernel-dvd (strangeness detected)

[Tilman Baumann <simsalabimson@web.de>]

I finally got a sucess with compiling vdr against the builtin dvb 
subsystem in kernel 2.6.

Had to made the folowing changes:

I ignored DVBDIR in the Makefile and set INCLUDE to the path of the 
userspaceincludes of linux.
INCLUDES = -I$/usr/include

This will maybe clash with the usage of DVBDIR in the Plugin Makefiles. 
Unfortunately some of them redefines the path, so you have to patchevery 
plugin.
I'm not sure, but it seens to be the cleanest way to remove or change 
the usage of DVBDIR. Why not call in INCLUDE and set both path, ../DVB 
and /usr/inlude ?


And, by some strange reasons time.h ist included twice wich causes 
errors i do not understand.
I removed the inclution of time.h in /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h an 
was able to compile.

Well, that is ugly. But wouln't that be a great challange to anyone of 
you who understand really what he is doing? :)


finally{
   Well, it's posible. But not out of the box.
   Since 2.6 is 'stable', the demand of a out-of-the-box solution will 
increase.
