Greg, I have the 2.6.22-14 kernel under Gusty. I have tried fedora
slackware knoppmyth and a gentoo derivation. I am unsure if i have
the starbox or the starbox 2 I have had some progress. The firmware I
had downloaded was messed up. I have tried the one of the german site
that was linked to before. I am now able to get the unit to register
and create a /dev/dvb/adapter. I seem to be getting the same error as
you involving the -110. Any eta on support for the starbox. I am more
than willing to help out in any way.

Hi Patrick,
Thank you for your the response. I've read that the Starbox one
displays the model as 7021 while the Starbox II shows 7021A. Not sure
how accurate that is.
Thanks again, I'll go get a Starbox II then.
Greg
