__my questions (some of them):__
my dvb-s card has a mpeg decoder!!
does the driver supports my dvb-s card right?
why can't /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 not be opened??
where might be the error?
how can i get it working?

i try for some days to get my dvb-s card and vdr running, but i 
became a bit confused ...
so, thanks for any hint!
