  ?? No, this is the |= operator, which is equivalent to reg0 = reg0 |
0x20.  Just grab a C or C++ book somewhere and everything should soon be
clear to you!

  Comment this printk away from the source and recompile, it's just
debugging.  But normally you should be able to get a lock and this message
helps you if you are doing developement so maybe you should configure your
syslogd or something so that it does not interfere with your display.. or
maybe the message should be configured to be of lower priority.. is that
possible..

  Btw. Jan Ekholm's testing shows that the guess of 35.9375MHz IF is the
best one this far.  Would anyone else in any other country care to check
their tuners if this holds true too?  Just follow
http://hyvatti.iki.fi/~jaakko/dvb/findchannels.html and send me the
printed AFC values and exact tuned frequencies from syslog.  Let's nail
this DVB-C now.
