Hi Manu,
I was able to resolve my rotor problem by making the following changes in the stb6100, stb0899 and mantis sources:
u<X> replaced by unit<X>_t..
Since I am running the drivers on 64-bit machine my guess is that is a 64-bit pointer size thing.
Unfortunately it is painful to restore my rotor settings after loosing them and I cannot tell you at the
moment which change made the difference.
Thanks for your help,
Simeon

In fact, looks really confusing to me. The diseqc commands just go out
as it is,
through the FIFO. I don't see anything that which changes the commands, but
if it was working with another card, it should be working with this card
too (i
had some doubts, but when you said it worked with some other card, then i
don't see the issue in here with the diseqc part. The FiFO either works
or not)
