Ok, I built an diablo kernel with your Japanese radio frequencies patch and switched the mode in settings and restarted. The frequencies display in mediabox changed from the norm for Europe to the Japanese 76 MHz to 90 MHz.

This is London though, and all I got was static.

I don't know if just static occurs without the patch so therefore I couldn't verify if mediabox actually changed the frequencies though as no kernel output is given when done so. I'll do a quick mod of the patch that does a printk if the frequencies are changed tomorrow.

But I was getting different types of static while scanning, so it is probably working.

BTW: I uploaded subversion into diablo extras-devel for the purpose of exporting this . Maybe it will make it easier for others to test this too.

Anyway, *really* nice program. Loving the SVN version even more, thanks!
