that's exactly your problem. The Alps TDLB7 has no real probing
routine since the , so it just pings the i2c device. And the
Nova-USB has a strange i2c interface, we don't know how to implement
correct i2c pings. So please load only the tdmb7 driver but no other
one, these would prevent the tdmb7 driver from working.
hope that helps,

Thanks for the quick reply.
I'm only loading the tdmb7 module now, but I'm still not getting any
further, i.e. getting tuning failed when I try to scan.
dmesg now shows (with debug=1):
Linux video capture interface: v1.00

Is there any other debug information that would be helpful (I'm not
much of a linux hacker).
Better start by trying tzap and a channel list that contains only some
of your local transmitters. When you can receive those then you can
add them to the scan initial transponder lists and do a real network
scan.
You get the required tuning parameters from your local broadcaster or
maybe you can also try to write them down from the Windows tool.

I tried that and the output from tzap for any frequency seems to be:
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
tuning to 722000000 Hz
status 01 | signal ffff | snr ffff | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 01 | signal ffff | snr ffff | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
Are you sure you set the other frontend parameters beside the frequency
correctly?
