hi


> You have to create the /dev/dvbX/... entries...
> There is a script in the "DVB" package at

i have used makedev to create the /dev/dvb/adapter..
this is the result

root@localhost driver]# sh makedev.napi
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter0
chown: `root.video': invalid group
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter1
chown: `root.video': invalid group
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter2
chown: `root.video': invalid group
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter3
chown: `root.video': invalid group


now i have /dev/dvb/adapter0/... modules, but using
applications to test them result in

[root@localhost test]# ./set22k on
set22k: using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0'
open: No such device


[root@localhost test]# ./sendburst a
set22k: using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0'
open: No such device


[root@localhost test]# ./test_dvr video 0x2000
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' and
'/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0'
writing to 'video'
cannot open dvr device: No such device


[root@localhost test]# ./diseqc
diseqc test: using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0'
open: No such device



i tried to cat all these devices and the result is as
shown

root@localhost test]# cd /dev/dvb/adapter0/
[root@localhost adapter0]# ls
audio0  ca0  demux0  dvr0  frontend0  net0  osd0 
video0
[root@localhost adapter0]# cat audio0
cat: audio0: No such device
[root@localhost adapter0]# cat ca0
cat: ca0: No such device
[root@localhost adapter0]# cat demux0
cat: demux0: No such device
[root@localhost adapter0]# cat dvr0
cat: dvr0: No such device
[root@localhost adapter0]# cat osd0
cat: osd0: No such device
[root@localhost adapter0]# cat video0
cat: video0: No such device
[root@localhost adapter0]#

i also check adapter1, adapter2, adapter3 but all of
them give the same result
