you need skystar2 and mt352 from dvb-kernel (cvs version of the drivers).
Unfortunately VHF channels don't tune.
The reason is that the drivers always use the 20.4 Mhz clock, while
for bandwidth 7 and 6 the right clock to use is the 19.2 Mhz one.


Hopefully someone knows how to program  these settings :)
