hello as i mentioned in my previous mail: "very easy way to get and to comile the modules" getting and compiling the tree v4l-dvb only works under fedora 5 with kernel-2.6.17-1.2139_FC5. fixing the frontend problem in the same way under 2.6.17-1.2145_FC5 leads to no success. as Andrew de Quincey mentioned/featured: changing the lines in budget-av.c to saa7146_setgpio(saa, 0, SAA7146_GPIO_OUTLO); switch (saa->pci->subsystem_device) { case SUBID_DVBS_KNC1_PLUS: case SUBID_DVBC_KNC1_PLUS: case SUBID_DVBT_KNC1_PLUS: // Enable / PowerON Frontend saa7146_setgpio(saa, 3, SAA7146_GPIO_OUTHI); break; and compiling the kernel fixed it for that kernel version (also) ! thx to Andrew de Quincey ronald _______________________________________________ linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
