I agree that in ubuntu there seem always to be "unfinished" things and then rush many things into "stable" releases when "it's time". Anyway.... i tried to upgrade the system from "hardy" to "intrepid", which meant a lot of ports upgraded, including kernel 2.6.27.9.13 that thing you say... "All saa7134 DVB-S drivers have this option as diseqc = 0 in the config currently and it should be right for the Trio too and the isl6421 should forward." is there any way i can try this? is there any config file i can edit to make that happen (to make diseqc work)? i'm not a experienced user ,but i've got the card and i'm really willing to help in any posible way. just let me know what i can do. thanks. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
