Sorry for the delayed mail, somehow it skipped my eye.
Did quite a bit of work and ported the mantis tree ..
http://kromtek.com/dvb/mantis-v4l-dvb.tar.bz2

that warning, what you saw is fine, it came in after the i2c changes
in .20. It is fixed in the tree that i have put at the URL above.
diseqc stuff shouldn't be a problem though.

Would be interesting to know how it goes at your side.

Manu,

I will test this version tonight and report back.
My rotor is working fine I discovered a small bug in my own software. When this was fixed I could rotate the dish without problems.

Regards,

Michel.

Manu,

The 24th of february 2007 version works allright for me. Following in messagelog:

ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:05.0[A] -> Link [LNKB] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
irq: 19, latency: 32

Rotor is working allright so DiseqC is transfered normal.
I merged only the mantis part into my kernel sources. This is a x86_64 kernel.

What should be the differences to the previous version?

I did not yet try a scan for the missing channels to see if they are visible right now because my dish needs reallignement, reception is poort, after a storm a few weeks ago and currently it is pooring rain here so I was not able to get on my roof.

Regards,

Michel.
