*sigh* messing with kernel stuff sucks. Does a vdr built with the multiproto headers at least also work on vanilla kernels ie stable dvb drivers? That way one would only need to use different headers for building vdr but no extra kernel modules at run time.
so, what do you mean - "updated multiproto headers" - are the version.h and frontend.h ? only this two files Manu have changed in multiproto.

AFAICT, the updated headers can be used along with the old drivers without any issues. If not there's an issue with regards to backward compatibility. Can you pleas point out the errors that which you see, when you are using the updated headers and the old drivers ?
The new headers work fine with the old driver - if the application still uses the old API. I've tested that first thing before I switched to the new API.
However, I don't see how an application actually using the new API could work with the old driver.
At any rate, the patch from Ulrich Richter should work for people insisting to use the old driver.
