[linux-dvb] DVB-0.8.2-patch8 + Hauppauge Nexus + kernel 2.4.18 = ?

[aded <aleohoh@libero.it>]

Hello,
finally I bought my first satellite card, a new Hauppauge Nexus.
I want to test it with data transmission, and I've downloaded 0.8.2
driver with the mr Boros' patch. Following the instructions, when I want
to load dvb driver, this is the result:

*****
# modprobe dvb
Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/media/video/dmxdev.o

Apparently the driver can't recognize my card (no such device).
This is /var/log/messages:

Well, first of all I don't know what "adapter unregistered" means. And
what is "v4l extension unregistered"?

This is my /etc/modules.conf, DVB section:

I've also eliminated the lines "#if 0" and "#end if" from dvb.c in
"switch (subsys)" switch, they apparently "eliminate" my 0x003
vendor-code. Maybe I'm making a stupid error, but what error :( ?
Is anyone using this card as data-IP receiver? Note: the card is ok with
0.9.4 drivers, it works and I can see satTV channels.

Distro: Slackware 8.0
Kernel: 2.4.18
Card  : Hauppauge WinTV Nexus-s

TIA!

PS: I apologize for my (beautyful and) bad English :)
