I have a bunch of patches regarding the DVB subsystem and the various drivers here. They have accumulated because I did not want to disturb Linus with "misc fixes in driver foo" patches. Additionally, we (ie. the LinuxTV.org project) are planning to remove all compiled-in firmware blobs and instead use the new firmware loading facilities. I have a patch for the firmware loading here, too. Can you please tell me if and when I can send you these patches? For your information: the DVB subsystem and the drivers are hosted at http://linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ The driver can be used under 2.4 and 2.6 as well and is used mainly in Europe. In the past, I simply sent the patches to lkml and Linus directly. Except Alan Cox and Christoph Hellwig apparently nobody cared about this, perhaps mainly because the DVB system does not affect any other subsystem. CU Michael. (LinuxTV.org CVS maintainer)
