Hello Patrick,

I've just tried the driver on 2.6.18. I get the following:

dib0700: loaded with support for 2 different device-types
dvb-usb: found a 'Hauppauge Nova-T Stick' in cold state, will try to 
load a firmware
dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-dib0700-01.fw'
dib0700: firmware started successfully.
dvb-usb: found a 'Hauppauge Nova-T Stick' in warm state.
dvb-usb: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software 
demuxer.
DVB: registering new adapter (Hauppauge Nova-T Stick).
DiB7000M:i2c read error on 896
DiB7000M:-E-  DiB7000M: wrong Vendor ID (read=0x4602)
dvb-usb: no frontend was attached by 'Hauppauge Nova-T Stick'
dvb-usb: Hauppauge Nova-T Stick successfully initialized and connected.
usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_dib0700
