That seems a bit harsh but I understand your point. Running a
hypervisor is far from unusual. I half expected this sort of response
(not my problem mate). But, considering it's Xen dom0, I'm surprised
there is nothing I can do?

Nova-T works perfectly in MythTV on Xen. I haven't tried it in
Kaffeine - you could be entirely right here. Whichever - because it's
apparent there is a Xen versus dvb issue.

I guess what I'd fall back to, xen dom0 support is now a part of the
mainline kernel - so it shouldn't conflict with with particular
hardware support such as that for the HVR-4000. It's obvious it "can"
work, but from what I'm hearing from you - no-one would own this.

I don't mind putting the hours in to resolve this, I really don't, but
I don't have sufficient knowledge to do this on my own.
