Hi, Thanks for the help so far. I did a hg clone of the latest v4l-dvb repository, built, installed, rebooted a few times, and did the modprobe below, but unfortunately I still can't lock: Here's the scan output: $ sudo ../scan -vvvvvvv test scanning test using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 11220000 H 27500000 2 >>> tune to: 11220:h:0:27500 DiSEqC: switch pos 0, 18V, loband (index 1) diseqc_send_msg:59: DiSEqC: e0 10 38 f2 00 00 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 >>> tuning status == 0x03 WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!! >>> tune to: 11220:h:0:27500 (tuning failed) Interestingly, since changing the drivers, the STV0299 is mapping against a weird frontend: [ 12.633254] DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 28036848 (ST STV0299 DVB-S)... Could this be a problem? Thanks, Shaun 2009/7/26 Igor M.
