Re: Skystar2 with different PCI-ID

Hello,
I don't really understand what you want us to do now.
Our problem is (or was) that our cards first were present with
13d0:2102 and then "magically" changed their IDs to (the
correct) 13d0:2103.

When the card identifies itself as 2102 the kernel module don't
find the hardware. (And even if I added the 2102 it wasn't working
as seen in my very first message:
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2006-November/014564.html)

We are only wondering why Technisat have done this ID-switch.
Our two cards (Michaels and mine) are now working for us
but for a new user this is not self-explanatory.
This I think applies only for the revision 2.3.
I have not seen this 2102 thing again with my card.

(Probably a message which is displayed if a 13d0:2102 is detected
should be displayed to a user that he should try reinserting the card
(at least reboot) or "wait until it gets the 2103" and should consider
to get help on this mailing list.)

Merry Christmas
Bernhard
