I've lost track of the exact thread, but if I recall correctly, the 950 is supported by the em28xx module in the mainline tree. I haven't been able to find a page dedicated to it. Did I miss it? Is the mailing list the only way to keep track of which hardware is supported by which module? <br><br><span>Now that you mention it, there is also <a target="_blank" href="http://linuxtv.org/hg/%7Emkrufky/hvr950/">http://linuxtv.org/hg/~mkrufky/hvr950/</a> but I don't want to have conflicts between the dvb modules there and the ones in the mainline tree. Besides, since it is 13 months old, I imagine it has been merged to the mainline tree. Is that not true.</span><br><br>If the HVR 1800 is supposed to work then it must /dev/dvb/adapter0, right? Is
there a way verify that?<br><br>Thanks for your help, Steven.<br><br>John<br></div></div></body></html>
