[vdr] Help Linux is driving me nuts

["Reinhard Walter Buchner" <rw.buchner@freenet.de>]

Hello All,

Linux is really starting to get on my nerves ;o((!

I have a Rev 1.6 DVB-S Card in my computer. It runs great under
Windows (so I KNOW the card is okay) using the TT drivers. It has
the TDA8083 chip and the Grundig SP8060 tuner onboard.

I tried compiling the DVB drivers (several versions 0.9.4, Convergence
snapshot, special technotrend patch, the version Klaus recommends)

make gives no errors, just a warning about a stereo tuner not being
used.

Make insmod gives me the following output:
******************************************************

******************************************************************

While insmoding the ARM Processor IS initialized (you see a short colored
picture on the tv). However linux (SuSe V7.3 Kernal 2.4.4) says there is
no DVB card installed (as far as I understand the message). What I am doing
wrong?? Please help!

I have also installed the card in another system with the same results. The
MiniLinux Distri gives me the same results.

Greetz,
Reinhard
