Hi,

First of all, thanks for fixing this.

I'm the kernel maintainer of a GNU/Linux distro called Pardus. We're currently sticking with 2.6.31 so
I've backported the mantis/hopper driver and the necessary frontends to 2.6.31.

I don't have direct access to those cards but one of our users complains that he can't even start to scan
channels. I've sent him the patched kernel. First I'll give some information about its card:

05:02.0 Multimedia controller [0480]: Twinhan Technology Co. Ltd Mantis DTV PCI Bridge Controller [Ver 1.0] [1822:4e35] (rev 01)
        Subsystem: 1ae4:0001
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 23
        Memory at dfeff000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Kernel driver in use: Mantis
        Kernel modules: mantis

The driver is autoloaded during boot. Here's the relevant lines from dmesg:

[   14.686575] Mantis 0000:05:02.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 23 (level, low) -> IRQ 23
[   14.687597] DVB: registering new adapter (Mantis DVB adapter)
[   15.560265] stb0899_attach: Attaching STB0899 
[   15.560269] stb6100_attach: Attaching STB6100 
[   15.560486] LNBx2x attached on addr=8
[   15.560489] DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (STB0899 Multistandard)...

Then he tries to scan stuff with the latest kaffeine. Kaffeine now detects the card as device#1. But the scanning
stucks at %0. dmesg now gives some clues:

[  372.797436] DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 symbol rate 4557000 out of range (5000000..45000000)
[  392.046437] DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 symbol rate 4557000 out of range (5000000..45000000)
[  525.377950] DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 symbol rate 4557000 out of range (5000000..45000000)

I don't have any idea if this is a user configuration problem or a problem in the driver. I told him to try to change
the symbol rate but he sent me the screenshots of kaffeine which apparently doesn't contain any place for modifying
the symbol rate.

How should I/we help him to debug this issue?

Thanks,
Ozan Caglayan
