Hi everyone on this list, This is my first post in a mailing list and I'm not quite sure if this is the right place seeking help for a technical problem with a specific DVB-C card. But since I've searched everywhere on the net, this is my last chance for now to resolve a problem with the DVB-T/C card "TechniSat CableStar Combo HD CI". I have this card since a long time ago, but it never worked (and still doesn't). But just recently I've read on linuxtv.org that it is possible to use that card with the latest kernels (from 3.9.2 on) and modified drivers, so I decided to give it another try; following the instructions from this post: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/technisat-cablestar-combo-hd-benutzen/#post-5650497 At first, everything looked fine, since the card seems to be recognized and the drivers are loaded; as shown by the dmesg output: [ 1322.092805] DVB: registering new adapter (Technisat Combo HD CI) [ 1322.095684] usb 1-2: dvb_usb_v2: MAC address: c2:f7:14:03:00:00 [ 1322.096525] drxk: frontend initialized.

Before I give you the rest of the relevant info one more thing. Even if you don't have the time now to help and fix this issue, I want to thank you so far for your work to make linux such a great system. So here comes the rest of the info, which hopefully helps you, and greeting to all of you. For further questions feel free to contact me.
