Hi
probably I'm doing something dumb as I really don't know much about
this stuff. I have mandrake 10.1, 2.6.8.1-10mdk, and I am trying to
use a skystar2 card. I have recompiled the kernel with the
dvb-tcpp... firmware compile option on, though I'm unclear if it is
needed, and the skystar2 module is there and loaded.
[root@localhost sbin]# lsmod
Module Size Used by
skystar2 25092 0
mt312 7268 0
dvb-core 77288 2 skystar2,mt312
I am using mt312, again I'm not sure if it is correct as I don't know
the revision of my card, but no problem to switch to tvs0299 if
neccesary.

Hi,
have you actually *tried* loading stv0299? If you have a newer card
that's the only way to make it work. In fact it's no problem loading
both frontends. You do not need the firmware if you have a skystr2 only.
Good luck,
Niklas
yes I have, no problem to load, no difference to the make process.
You do not need to "make" anything if you already can load the modules.
Just load them, run the MAKEDEV-skript (if the nodes do not appear
automatically) and then it should work. To be sure load both possible
frontends: mt312, stv0299 (for satellite) or mt352 (for terrestrial).
