First of all: Thanks a lot for all the support. <may-be-skipped> But please be a little bit patient - not enough spare time after work (lots of ugly, boring budget issues, workshops and powerpoint drawing for management at the moment... :-((( </may-be-skipped> > I've committed basic support for the Nexus 2.3 to the CVS: > - subsystem id > - alps_bsbe1 inittab > - alps_bsbe1_pll_set > - lnbp21 voltage switching [*] > - lnb current limited to 550mA (for now) > > [*] Assuming that the LNBP21 is at I2C address 0x10.

Fortunately I have the hardware and tested your changes :-) Now I can get a lock on several channels. A list of these channels is added at the end of this message. With the last three (#227 - #229, added manually to my channels.conf) I get video and sound. Only blackness and silence at the others. (Btw. I killed every szap call after 3 seconds. Maybe I could get some more channels if I had waited longer.) btw: Running the Windows TV watching program shipped with the card sets 14/19V, not 13/18V as you do in lnbp21_set_voltage(). Maybe we should also set register 0x08 to 0x54/0x5C (=14/19V) instead of 0x44/0x4C (=13/18V)?

There's no tech spec shipped with the card. Any idea where to find one? I'm tired of googling for now. > > > [2] Could someone please tell me whether DSQIN or EXTM are used on the > > > Nexus 2.3? On the older cards DiSEqC was done by the av7111. Are the pictures at Huberts website any help (click on thumbnails)? http://www.ploeb.de/nexus.html Look at Pic #2: - there is a very thin wire from pin 5 (EXTM) leading to the gap between the two tin-solder points (and probably connected to them) - pin 14 (DSQIN) doesn't seem to by connected. There seems to be no difference if I set the TEN-bit (DSQIN disabled by writing 0x64 or 0x6c instead of 0x44 or 0x4c). Ok, what next?
