Thanks, William. Really helpful.
I think that the issue is down to the mt312 or the ds3000_readreg.
Here's my /var/log/kern.log (I had some confusion over which log file
to look at due to
distro variations), from the tevii 100315_Beta_linux_tevii_ds3000.rar
code:

Clearly, either I've still got the wrong code, my hardware's
different, or I've got some other config difference. your logfile
clearly shows that ds3000_readreg is getting the correct 0xe0
response, whereas mine's come back with 0x70 and therefore doesn't try
to attach the frontend...
here's the hashes taht I've got for the modules (from modinfo, I think
that this should show whether we're using hte same sources):
ds3000: srcversion: 8BBEA04D5B5CDF6343234E5
dw2102: srcversion: ADE91410D87CAB74AE3862C
mt312: srcversion: E4DBE51A55D359EB4157AA2
what did you do to get your mt312 correctly identified?
On my wintel box, channel switching takes a couple of seconds, does
yours take much longer?
what's the real problem with leaving the rc polling on ? I know that
you get log messages, but they're only messages. they can be turned
off by commenting out the info lines (info ("query RC... ) and then
make/sudo make install (just put // at the beginning of the lines in
dw2102.c)

did you load your modules with debug=1, or something else, somehow?
I thought that the code printing out ds3000_readreg required debug.
or have you got different source code from the tevii driver on www.tevii.com/Support.asp?
(unless I know what you're using, I cannot tell what's relevant.)
i tried this so probably yes
/etc/modprobe.d/test.conf
##
options mt312 debug=1
options ds3000 debug=1
options dvb-usb-dw2102 debug=1
options dvb-usb disable_rc_polling=1
options dvb-usb-dw2102 keymap=2 demod=2
##
The tevii device should be supported by the linuxtv drivers:
############
hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb
cd v4l-dvb
make menuconfig disable/enable what you need
make&& make install
poweroff
remove power/usb cables
replug the power to tevii device
then connect the usb
then poweron pc
Then i get this in my log:

now i have:

Now i can also make use off the device except that my system gets
slow and channel zapping takes ages.
i disabled the debug message for the remote with the option
disable_rc_polling for dvb-usb.
only then you cannot use the remote :)
With kind regards
