							|  |  |  | ============================================= | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The main development site and CVS repository for these | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | drivers is http://linuxtv.org/. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The developer mailing list linux-dvb is also hosted there, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | see http://linuxtv.org/lists.php. Please check | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | the archive http://linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/ | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | and the Wiki http://linuxtv.org/wiki/ | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | before asking newbie questions on the list. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | API documentation, utilities and test/example programs | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | are available as part of the old driver package for Linux 2.4 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | (linuxtv-dvb-1.0.x.tar.gz), or from CVS (module DVB). | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | We plan to split this into separate packages, but it's not | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | been done yet. |
