cyberlogin: cannot open dvb device!



dear dvb users,

i'm pretty new to dvb and installation but the concept seems to be cool,
and i really am looking forward to see it at work.

after installing the dish, i have installed the cable and card
into my pc. i'm running linux rh52, kernel-2.3.99-pre9 (latest)
and successfully compiled the 0.05 drivers from linuxtv.org/dvb/devel..

[tested the signal level on a windows based pc, everything okay! 100%]

switching back to linux:
i have built the apps, but when i run CyberLogin i get:
Cannot Open DVB Device !
heeelp!

here's my Cyberlogin.ini.

   DVBDevice       = dvb0
   Frequency       = 12640000
   SymbolRate      = 22000
   LocalOscillator = 10600000
   Alignment       = V
   DiseqcPort      = 0
   LNBHigh         = 1
   DataPID         = 512
   NetDevice       = eth0
   ServerIPAddress = 194.177.32.35
   SendPort        = 6000
   RecvPort        = 8000
   UserName        = don'tknow 
   Password        = either. 

my network configuration includes a weak ethernet connection to
internet, but it's at around 3-4KB at its low, and i configured
for cyberlogin as a netdevice the eth0. could this be the problem? 
i also looked up the /dev/ directory and haven't seen any dvb0 device.
do i have to see some dvb device in there?

when i do make insmod, everything is fine.

dvb0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:D0:5C:3D:1A:64
          inet addr:192.168.4.1  Bcast:192.168.4.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0

Kernel Routing Table looks like this.
student.ro      *               255.255.255.128 U     0      0        0 eth0
192.168.4.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 dvb0
127.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
default         cisco2509.stude 0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

i don't know whether i have to make a route to the whole network
of 192.168.4.0 over my kernel, but insmod is makeing it by default.

mihai.
