Hello again

Okay I tried this kernel issues now and it still doesnt work.
I want to thank all people who tried to help me.
Even if it still doesnt work and even if I dont know what the problem is,
I'll try some stuff on my own at all.
Its possible that I will change to digital anyways soon so its not that 
problem.
