It works now, after I pulled the complete DVB module from the CVS again. The
same thing happened last time I checked out a new version. "cvs update ; cd
driver/ ; make" results in a broken driver but if I use a fresh copy of
everything, it works. Very strange but you should probably try to fetch the
entire DVB module from the CVS server again?!

With the latest driver and VDR 0.80pre7, I now get this error messages when
starting VDR:

[...]
May 26 18:16:25 vdr vdr[1233]: probing /dev/ost/qpskfe1
May 26 18:16:25 vdr vdr[1233]: ERROR: /dev/ost/qpskfe1: No such device

May 26 18:16:25 vdr vdr[1233]: ERROR: /dev/ost/qamfe1: No such device
[...]

although the devices are there and VDR is running as root:

vdr:/usr/src/dvb/VDR # ll /dev/ost/q*

crw-rw-rw-    1 root     root     250, 131 May 26 18:11 /dev/ost/qpskfe2

What's wrong there?
