Unfortunately, diseqc seems broken, because no matter what i try -s 0, 1 , 2 ,3.... i get 28.2E signal however, 4 shows an error, as you said. It used to work... so i'll try to get back or compile new linux-dvb module as you suggested. i'm really really newbie in this, i'm using kubuntu, so imagine.... hahahaha. i don't even know how to get started, i barely install thing by "apt-get" i'll try to find the way or post instead my problem in an ubuntu forum. thanks for the info. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
