I run old fedora 19 though, and things may have deteriorated since? Last time I needed to build was Jan 31 for kernel 3.14.27-100.fc19.x86_64. Is this driver included with the kernel these days? cheers Eyal > Christian Dale (cc:d) posted a patch a while ago > and since that time there have been a few patches > from Olle and others that have significantly improved things. > > However I am still having issues with the card; > sometimes it does not scan any of the multiplexes > I look at with it, sometimes it does some of them > and sometimes it pulls out some program ids on one > mulitplex but not the others in the scan. > The behaviour is different between the two tuners > on the card as well. > > I've written a test script that turns on various > kernel dynamic debug entries and tries to scan, > using the old dvb-apps 'scan' (1.1.1+rev1500) > and the latest dvbv5-scan from git. > > Would anyone on the list interested in helping > please take a look at the attached logs of the > run I did?
