Thanks for the ideas, Hermann.  The following is with the 2.6.17-1.2174
FC5 kernel and modules installed from the ATrpms website in

check to see if the latest mercurial release is the same later this
evening.

I get the same as you, and no errors.  I'm not passing any flags to the
saa7134 module atm though, as it appears to autodetect as card=71.

Same again, and here's my dmesg output:

Here things are a little different:

insmod
/lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2174_FC5/updates/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/tda1004x.ko

insmod
/lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2174_FC5/updates/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/nxt200x.ko

insmod
/lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2174_FC5/updates/drivers/media/video/saa7134/saa7134-dvb.ko


I'm also getting the nxt200x and mt352 modules.  dmesg gives:

DVB: registering new adapter (saa7130[0]).
DVB: registering frontend 0 (Philips TDA10046H DVB-T)...

It certainly looks that way.

I'll do that shortly.  scan returns 31 channels currently.  This morning
it was 56, last night it was 48, so it does look like there's an issue
with weak signals for me.

I've done this, but it just doesn't appear to be getting installed.

That looks like what I have.

So, everything looks good to me so far.  The only outstanding problem
appears to be getting the firmware loaded.  Looking through the latest
mercurial code, it appears that it's the saa7134-dvb module that's
supposed to start the firmware loading off, so I guess I need to get
the mercurial code built and see what happens.

Thanks for your help so far,
James
