[linux-dvb] Re: UK freeview reception on NOVA T

["Andy Marriott" <andrew@fnarg.demon.co.uk>]

Okay, I'll grab dvb-kernel now....

Is it going to be worth putting a 2.6 kernel on as well then? I'm
currently running 2.4.21.

My Nova card is brand new and it's using the TDA1004 frontend, I'm
assuming that's where the problem lies.

Thanks for all your help!

Please use the dvb-kernel driver from CVS, there this bug is fixed.
