[mythtv-users] Unichrome DRM Compile Problem

[Neale Swinnerton]

I've had this maybe last year or the year before, nothing to do with
mythtv then. Check that you've got you processor type set properly in
your kernel config. you can download a suitable .config from
http://www.epiawiki.org/

Also, I've read somewhere that CVS DRM doesn't support 2.6.11, and I get
missing symbol errors when I modprobe via built against 2.6.11. I'm
using 2.6.8.1 with good success, so I didn't investigate further.
