I tried that, too, and used the mentioned driver from
    ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/linux-dvb.2002-11-01.tar.bz2
but it didn't worked.
Unfortunately my knowledge about linux is small so it's hard for me to
find the wrong point. 

After the "make" in the DVB directory I tried "make insmod" and it
answered:
    make: *** No rule to make target `insmod'.  Stop.

The last lines before that (from the make result) were:

make[1]: Entering directory `/vdr/DVB/apps/szap'
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -I../../include -o szap.o -c szap.c
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -o szap szap.o
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -I../../include -o tzap.o -c tzap.c
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -o tzap tzap.o
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -I../../include -o czap.o -c czap.c
gcc -Wall -g -O2 -o czap czap.o

 please copy an appropriate channels.conf-XXX clannel list for DVB-S/C/T

   to ~/.szap/channels.conf
      ~/.czap/channels.conf
      ~/.tzap/channels.conf

 and then call ./szap for DVB-S, ./czap for DVB-C or ./tzap for DVB-T
------------------------------------------------------------------------

make[1]: Leaving directory `/vdr/DVB/apps/szap'

------------------------------------------------------------------------

  NOTE:  you should configure+build 'apps/tuxzap/ manually
------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also tried to follow this szap advise:
    mkdir ~/.szap
    cp apps/szap/channels.conf-dvbs-astra ~/.szap/channels.conf
    ./apps/szap/szap -n 1
and the answer was
    zapping to 'Das Erste':
    sat 0, frequency = 11837 MHz H, symbolrate 27500000, vpid = 0x0065,
apid = 0x0066
    using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
    opening frontend failed: No such device
No picture on the TV out.

After trying to start vdr in the log-File it says
    ... LinuxVDR vdr[3538]: VDR version 1.1.16 started
    ... LinuxVDR vdr[3538]: loading /vdr/conf/setup.conf

    ... LinuxVDR vdr[3538]: invalid primary device number: 1
    ... LinuxVDR vdr[3538]: ERROR: no primary device found - giving up!

Any ideas what's going wrong here? Any hints what I should try?

thx.
