Hi Adam, > I wonder whether this is related to your problem? > lsmod lists tuner_xc2028 loaded, as this is the tuner on the card (see my > kernel's messages below.)

When I don't exclude it from modules.dep the PC doesn't boot normally. That's my problem. The init of xc2028 seg faults. WITH tuner-xc2028 in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/modules.dep modprobe FAILS during the boot-phase. > Maybe you could get around it my manually inserting that module first, > before anything else? Let's see if we get more debug-details. I rmmod'ed all modules and re-installed them in the following sequence: modprobe -v dvb-core debug=1 modprobe -v dvb-usb debug=1 modprobe -v dvb-pll debug=1 modprobe -v tuner-xc2028 debug=1 modprobe -v zl10353 debug=1 modprobe -v dvb-usb-cxusb debug=1 The last modprobe added to /var/log/kern.log: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- kernel: [20347.882552] check for warm 1660 932 kernel: [20347.882557] check for cold fe9 d500 kernel: [20347.882559] check for warm fe9 d501 kernel: [20347.882561] check for cold fe9 db50 kernel: [20347.882563] check for warm fe9 db51 kernel: [20347.882565] check for cold fe9 db54 kernel: [20347.882566] check for warm fe9 db55 kernel: [20347.882568] check for cold fe9 db58 kernel: [20347.882570] check for warm fe9 db59 kernel: [20347.882572] check for cold fe9 db00 kernel: [20347.882574] check for warm fe9 db01 kernel: [20347.882576] check for cold fe9 db10 kernel: [20347.882578] check for warm fe9 db11 kernel: [20347.882580] check for warm fe9 db78 kernel: [20347.882582] dvb-usb: found a 'DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual Digital 4' in warm state. kernel: [20347.882588] power control: 1 kernel: [20347.885522] dvb-usb: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software demuxer. kernel: [20347.885760] DVB: registering new adapter (DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual Digital 4) kernel: [20348.041391] DVB: registering frontend 0 (Zarlink ZL10353 DVB-T)... kernel: [20348.041615] xc2028: Xcv2028/3028 init called!
