Forget everything I said, I finally noticed that the antenna cable wasn't attached to the wall connector, so it wasn't possible to tune anything! I'm feeling really idiot now... :-) Well, at least the stick is working, and I'm not experiencing any problem with other USB devices like Benjamin reported. Perhaps it's a kernel version issue, I'm using 2.6.15 right now, with Ubuntu Dapper. Thanks everyone and, in the future, I promise to double-check all connections before asking for help :-) -- Jesús Jiménez jesjimenez@xxxxxxxxx El Viernes, 8 de Diciembre de 2006 22:03, Benjamin Gillam escribió: > Hi, I have a card with the same ID, mine is Freecom one.
