Hi Robert,

I have a HVR4000 running stable with a 2.6.21 kernel patched  with
Stevens tree. It is running stable since weeks (with DVB-S)  and I would
like to have it in the standard soon, even if the DVB-T part isn't
supported currently. The integration into newer kernels requires  some
additional patches  and  I  will  continue testing  as soon  as  it  is
in the  standard.

regards Uwe
