Miguel: Can you provide the version of the software you use, and the way you have installed rtl2831u software (e.g. a link to the instructions) ? The latest version should be located at: http://linuxtv.org/hg/~jhoogenraad/rtl2831-r2 This driver INDEED has no separate front-end: the MXL500x code is incorporated integrally in the code. I did not know anybody with a rtl2831/MXL500x combination yet, as all users I know had a rtl2831/MT2060 combination. It should work without frontend, as the code is included.
