[vdr] Re: NEWSTRUCT and VDR-1.1.2

[bigg <bigg@mba4.org>]

ooh, I didn't do makedev.napi, that could be the problem, i'll try it out
when I get back home tonight. Thanks, seems to make sense.
I never had trouble before with having the DVB-S2.1 card being the second
card in the machine as in my setup.conf I tell vdr to use the second card
as its primary card. Thanks for the response btw, much appreciated, I was
pulling my hair out last night :)

Another quick question, do I just need to run makedev.napi once? Or
everytime that I do make insmod?

THanks
