Dear George, Do not despair (yet)! :-) I had similar problems with a Gigabyte U7000 -being able to tune all channals except Channel Seven (here in Adelaide). Now, it's not that there's much on 7 that interests me but nevertheless... I needed to change the initial tuning details for Adelaide (au-Adelaide). In my case just the Channel 7 details were incorrect. Perhaps you need to find up-to-date information for au-Perth station tuning information and update /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/au-Perth -Try google Just maybe you'll need to re-compile drivers (although maybe not given it's working for one channel). I had to on gutsy and heron. These instructions (http://waterwave.ch/weblog/detail.php?id=324130) worked fine for me. good luck bye ian George, Tom (RTIO) wrote: > > Hi, > > Hoping someone can shed some light on this! > > I have an Asus U3000 mini usb dvb-t tuner and I'm struggling to get it > working properly.
