I see the table values are gone and parameters are computed by the code. I will only be able to test this driver in a couple of days, as I do not have the hardware (Cinergy T USB XE Ver.2) with me at the moment. Do you prefer me to apply the patch to one tree in particular? -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
