Ah, dont worry... Support for that card is queued up for official release in linux kernel 2.6.16 ... In the meantime, you can update your v4l/dvb drivers by using our cvs repository. Instructions located here: http://linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/How_to_build_from_CVS Please keep this in mind: This cvs repo is current as of a few days ago. We will no longer be updating the sources in v4l-dvb cvs, as we have migrated to the Mercurial SCM. http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb You dont have to use Hg yet, as the code in cvs already has support for your card, the Nova-S-Plus, however, I do recommend that if you need any updates in the future, to use our new mercurial repository. (Hg for short) We haven't updates all of the online howto's with instructions, but here's a quickie: First, install mercurial. Then, you're basically going to want to follow all of the directions in the cvs howto, except remove all of those cvs command, and use these instead: To fetch the repo for the first time: hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb To update the sources later on: cd v4l-dvb hg pull ...Mauro wrote up a howto on this link: http://linuxtv.org/cvs.php This should help. -Michael Krufky
