After downloading source via "git clone git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git" and successfully patching, compiling and installing the modules using a text terminal, i reboot and before i get to X my system hangs about 30 seconds into the boot process right after a bunch of messages warning me about using backported media build on an old kernel ("don't use it for production" etc etc). i would be more than happy to test your patch but i'm sorry i'm not sure what to do about that booting problem. i think i will need to try to find a way to re-install the standard ubuntu media modules into my 2.6.32-32 module directories (whilst running a different kernel) to even allow my system to boot on 2.6.32-32 !!
