Can't find dvb0_0 when using dvbtune

I am having problems in using dvbtune for ip over satellite using Linux
version 2.6.5-gentoo-r1 and a Skystar2 card.  I can use the card for dvb
tv reception with mplayer and Kaffeine with no problems.

However I cannot seem to use the card for data !

This what happens -

root@bumpkin james # dvbtune -n 512
Successfully opened network device, please configure the dvb interface

root@bumpkin james # dvbtune -f 12640000 -s 22000 -p v -D 0 -n 512

I have tried using dvbnet but I get the same problem.  Could anyone
please tell me what I am doing wrong ?  I have searched the web and this
  list but I cannot find a solution.

Thanks,

James
