Klaus, I would like to see you, or someone else actually following through 
with the problems that exists with compiling the current CVS dvb-kernel 
against a suse kernel, but as you know you cut off your attempt way to

your primary setup, and whenever You and I have time, We could work through 
this, instead of just dropping everything on the floor?
