Thanks Андрей,

Do you have a rotor? If it works OK which program do you use to drive it?

I think, this is becouse "Initial support for Mantis VP-1041" 
not usability yet.

I use patch from Hans Werner for 1041, works better.

  Subject: [linux-dvb] mantis vp1041 with 
  strange diseqc rotor commands

  

Hi,

I am using the latest mantis drivers from Manu's 
  repository:
http://jusst.de/hg/mantis/
with my 
  Azureware twinhan vp1041 based card.
Locking to DVB-S channels works fine 
  almost all the time with the patched szap or patched mythtv.
Did not try 
  DVB-S2 yet. But what I am having troubles now is the diseqc. I have a switch 
  behind a diseqc 1.2 rotor (goto stored positions).
The switching works fine 
  under Windoz. I have no problems also using it with my other card in the same 
  box - Twinhan 102g.
Initially with the vp1041 card after a couple of diseqc 
  commands I would get stb0899_diseqc_fifo_empy timeout. It turned out that I 
  had to use some very long pauses before sending a repeat command. If 
for 
  the 102g standart 15ms worked fine, for the vp1041 I had to use 1s! pause. 
  Then the rotor will start
 moving very slowly with small steps  - 
  as if it is does one step , stops and then continues to the desired 
  position.If one is patient enough the rotor gets to the desired position. I 
  checked using voltmeter the voltages that come out of the card and they seem 
  to be good. For sending the commands I used both mythtv and hacked version of 
  Michel Verbraak's gotox program.
Has anyone experienced something similar 
  with stb0899 frontend? Perhaps you can give me an idea what might be going 
  wrong?

Thanks,
Simeon
