I meant that I have to boot this kernel - which I did.
I have now a vanilla-kernel 2.6.16 working, copied the firmware files to their 
destination etc...

I have now a /dev/video0 device. I can access the WinTVusb2-box. I read the 
serial number via software/sysfs (and it's the same as printed on the 
case ;-)
and so on, it seems as I did everything right...
But I'm not able to get a stream. I have a video recorder on the WinTV box and 
want to save the video stream. 
cat /dev/video0 > movie.mpg resulted in an empty file,
xine - < /dev/video0 makes xine hang,
kaffeine hangs, if " fifo:/dev/video0#demux:mpeg " is written into the URL 
field.

But, you see, I'm a lot further than yesterday !
Thank you very much so far,
Richard
