Hi, I have a Debian (unstable) AMD64 (with 4gig RAM) and a nova-t-500 card. I'm currently running linux 2.6.20-rc6. If I try 'scan' I get the following: # scan -vvv /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/uk-SandyHeath scanning /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/uk-SandyHeath using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 641833334 0 2 9 3 0 0 0 >>> tune to: 641833334:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_AUTO:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE >>> tuning status == 0x1a WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0011 WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0000 WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0010 dumping lists (0 services) Done. If I use kaffeine (using Sandyheath as the default location) I see: Using DVB device 0:0 "DiBcom 3000MC/P" tuning DVB-T to 641833000 Hz inv:2 bw:0 fecH:2 fecL:9 mod:3 tm:0 gi:0 hier:0 . LOCKED. Transponders: 1/1 Invalid section length or timeout: pid=17 Invalid section length or timeout: pid=0 Frontend closed So it certainly seems to find the signal (as it locks) but then gets a bit grumpy! I've tried 2.6.19.2, setting mem=3G (having 4gig of ram has upset certain cards (ethernet, USB,....) in the past), using the latest drivers from the SCM system, having 'options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=1' in my /etc/modules.conf - but all give the above results. I don't have a TV with me nor do I have MS-Windows to try the card out there - so is it just a signal (ie. lack there-of!) problem? Hopefully next weekend I'll have my USRP (http://gnuradio.org/trac/wiki) with me and be able to see what strength signals I do have. Any thoughts or hints or suggestions would be welcome! Thanks Matt Nottingham Just for completeness, if I do 'dmesg | grep -i dvb' I get: dvb_usb_dib0700 2-1:1.0: usb_probe_interface dvb_usb_dib0700 2-1:1.0: usb_probe_interface - got id dvb-usb: found a 'Hauppauge Nova-T 500 Dual DVB-T' in cold state, will try to load a firmware dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-dib0700-01.fw' dvb-usb: found a 'Hauppauge Nova-T 500 Dual DVB-T' in warm state. **WARNING** I2C adapter driver [Hauppauge Nova-T 500 Dual DVB-T] forgot to specify physical device; fix it! dvb-usb: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software demuxer.
