Hi I managed to get mine working using the procedure here http://www.spinics.net/lists/vfl/msg13112.html, down to modprobe cx88-dvb. First you need to upgrade udev if you're still using 039, as this doesn't work properly. I'm using 050-9, and it has the dvb stuff already included. 2.6.9-1.667 is the only (FC3) kernel version I could get it working reliably with. Hope this helps Neil >From: Magnus <dvblist@xxxxxxxxxxxx> >To: linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: Re: [linux-dvb] Yet another Nova-T cx88 question (FC3, >modprobe,depmod, udev, pain) >Date: Sat, 07 May 2005 18:47:35 +0200 > >On Sat, 2005-05-07 at 14:38 +0300, Lauri Tischler wrote: > > DUBOST Brice wrote: > > > On Sat, May 07, 2005 at 02:00:31PM +0300, Lauri Tischler wrote: > > > > > >>DUBOST Brice wrote: > > >> > > >>>On Sat, May 07, 2005 at 12:26:49PM +0200, Magnus wrote: > > >>> > > >>> > > >>>>Hi all! > > >>>> > > >>>>I'm sorry to have to bother the list with yet another question about > > >>>>getting the Conexant Nova-T PCI card to work.
