I too am having 0 signal strength with a Fusion HDTV 7 Dual Express. scan
(from dvb-apps) does find channels, but my application won't work because
it is seeing no signal. I tried rebuilding the drivers from repository
tip but it doesn't help. The kernel I'm using is 2.6.27.9-73.fc9.i686.
lspci -v shows:
