The receiver worked fine > with older kernels (using the howto from ubuntu-it.org linked above) and > the remote controller was usable as well. > Hi Andrej, here you can find an updated version of the af9035 patch: http://openpli.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=openpli/openembedded;a=blob_plain;f=recipes/linux/linux-etxx00/dvb-usb-af9035.patch;hb=HEAD There are several improvements, including support for newer kernels (3.2 and 3.3) as well as the current media_build tree. I also added the missing "select" directives for the tda18218 and mxl5007T tuners, so the modules auto-loads correctly now. In this version there is no remote support. Please let me know if it works fine for you. Regards, Gianluca
