I have a Nova-S-CI and it's working nicely for me now (I had some 
problems with the CI before, but thanks to Andrew de Quincey they are 
now history). I'm using MythTV instead of VDR though, but I don't think 
that matters.

Unless someone has any other ideas I'd recommend that you upgrade to 
Linux 2.6.6 (if you're not already using it) and try the drivers that 
are included with the kernel. That works for me.

Otherwise I guess the people here will need some logs from dmesg and any 
other logs that might be meaningful (VDR?). Good luck!
