It would be a good idea to provide more detail of the steps you went through
to allow the *list* to diagnose the problem.

When you complete the step "make insmod" and if your dish is pointing to 19E
"make insmod" you should find the card is tuned to a station and the sound
and video outputs frrom the card are present.  At least that tells you if
the card is working.
