One thing to be aware of for 2.6. The crc routines may not be correct.
If the dvb-core/dvb_demux.c is prior to 16 Oct and/or refers to crc32_le
then it is likely the scan application won't work for kernel 2.6.

Either refresh your dvb-kernel from cvs or 
delete the DMX_CHECK_CRC flag in the scan app.

There should also be some dst messages in /var/log/messages saying
that dst card loaded successfully and what type it thinks it is.
