[linux-dvb] Problems with Hauppauge NOVA-S

[DVornheder@t-online.de (Dirk Vornheder)]

Hi !

I have some problems to get my Hauppauge NOVA-S (without CI) working under 

linux (SuSE 9.1, kernel 2.6.7rc2).

After installing latest dvb drivers from cvs i get this messages:

But if i start vdr 1.3.9 and kvdr i get only a black screen:

I have also installed a hauppauge wintv theater and a creative labs dxr3 which 

works without any problem.
