With 2.6.11 and the same snapshot with kaffeine-dvb, I can't get a 
display or audio. The snapshot builds. The only difference from the 
working 2.6.10 + video4linux-20050120 is the or51132 module which seems 
to require firmware - not needed with this card. From dmesg ---

I've a hunch the snapshots don't work with this card. I'll next try it 
with 2.6.11 and the 20050120 snapshot.

Sid.
