This is to inform you of souble success. Not only did it work to use my usb dvb-t stick for what it was originally made, for watching tv, but it was also possible to build a custom desktop kernel using 'make-kpkg' for my g4 mac, which runs the testing release. It required some fussing and fumbling initially and 'kdetv' was the first application to produce a tv motion picture, but as I do not use that desktop this was not sufficient. 'me-tv' does that job well enough now, 'zapping' and 'xine' do not yet. To document the whole thing I attached my Xorg-log, xorg.conf, lsusb-output for that particular device and what 'dmesg' says. Watching tv loads the cpu to about 50 %, so it is possible to have the machine do other minor tasks in the background, and the overall impression is more as one would expect from a desktop computer.
