[linux-dvb] Re: DVB-C it got worse!

[Micael Beronius <micael.beronius@telia.com>]

OK, so now I have tried my old computer (P3@910) and on this one, with
an old driver (dated 20021017) on the computer, I get tuning, (not
super fast, mind you), and there's no outcommand error 1 in the log.

I then build todays cvs. And voila! No tuning, but also no outcommand
error 1!


So this means for me, that todays drivers are broken regarding tuning
on dvb-c. And that there are also some incompatibility between the
DVB-C card/or drivers and my athlon motherboard.


I will now install windows on my athlon mb, and see if the windows
software works with this m/b and the dvb-c.
