Hi; has anyone managed to get this tuner to work in F11?

I was hoping that F11 would have the drivers built-in. Mick M. I do not have that particular USB tuner. Mine is a Pinnacle HDPC Pro 801e. It did not work in Fedora 10 because of missing modules and firmware and I had little success trying to install them myself. I have had better results with Fedora 11 which does have the most of the software necessary for my USB tuner but it did not have all of the drivers. I have had limited success with the DVB drivers from LinuxTV.org. What I discovered when first attempting to get my USB tuner working that some drivers and modules were still missing. Try scanning the tuner using one of the DVB tools (scandvb) and check your messages log. Some of the modules and firmware is not loaded until the device is first used. Running scandvb or other DVB applications, should result in either the USB tuner working or list what driver, module or firmware was not found and loaded (/var/log/messages). You need to repeat this process because the error messages usually stop after the first missing software is detected. With luck, if you are missing software, either LinuxTV.org or Google can help you find the pieces you need. The part that I am missing is that I have not figured out how to get the video4linux or video4linux2 drivers to work, thus allowing me to access my USB tuner with /dev/videoN and /dev/radioN. --
