Something else is amiss. > Before we try anything else, I would like to rule out the obvious: Do you have the firmware for the xc5000 tuner in place? If not, then please download it from http://www.steventoth.net/linux/xc5000/ and extract the firmware using the script in the same location (see the readme file for instruction). I hope that will resolve the issue. If you have indeed put the firmware in place for your previous tests, would you please post the *full* output of dmesg? You can post that at pastebin.com and just send the link in the email. -- Chaogui Zhang _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
