Hi Andrew,
I only tested for about 10 minutes now with switching hw_sections from 0 
to 1 and vice versa.
It looks like diseqc is much better with hw_sections=0 !
Anyway once or twice it took a very long time to switch, what I never 
have with version 1.0.0.
But as I said it looks good, maybe I have to check different diseqc 
settings.
Now I have some questions:
Why does hw_sections=1 change ( or kill ) diseqc behaviour ?
What's the reason that the default for this parm has been changed ?
and a totally different question:
Is there any possibilty to speed up the loading of dvb-ttpci module.
It takes about 5 to 10 seconds to load on my system.
