Sep 14 01:17:23 topocasa kernel: mt352_read_register: readreg error (reg=127, ret==-5) Sep 14 01:17:23 topocasa kernel: dvb-bt8xx: A frontend driver was not found for device 109e/0878 subsystem 1461/0771 Same error with different kernels since 2.6.10 and snapshots from cvs, last try with 2.6.12-6 from debian. In the hardware front tried with different slots and card combinations, no luck. A difference with Paul's card behavior is that mine has never been recognized. Cheers Miguel
