Alas, the saa7134 in 2.6.18 is too old for my card :-( The driver in 2.6.18 supports card numbered 1 to 95. My card (medion) has number 96 :-(
Putting saa7134 from a 2.6.23 kernel into 2.6.18 doesn't work.
Oh, this is unfortunate. In that case, the "easiest" way to get your card to work may be to use the 2.6.23 kernel. Of course, you'd have to take care of security fixes etc yourself...
Is there anything special I have to do to use a vanilla kernel on a Centos 5.1 machine? Nothing special hardware (except for the TV card), /boot and / on software RAID 1.
The centos 2.6.18 kernel is build with 1084 (!) patches, I assume they are there for a reason.
I stopped doing kernel compilations around RedHat 9...
Hmm ... I would try to use a newer Fedora kernel SRPM that meets the requirements.
Or maybe even just use MythDora for this machine as it is specifically designed for mythtv boxes.
