[linux-dvb] Re: No frontend device with Skystar2 and Kernel 2.6.0

Hi,
i am trying to get my Skystar2 DVB-S card working with a Kernel 2.6.0-test5-10-default (which i have got from SUSE ftp-server). I have configured the Kernel to create the dvb-core and skystar2 modules and they seem to load without errors.
But i cannot access the frontend0 device from any application (open fails, telling there is no such device), it works fine for demux0 and dvr0 !

I have turned on debugging and what i can see is, that the module registers a demux0, a dvr0 and a net0 device, but no frontend0. I can also see that it calls the "dvb_add_frontend_ioctls()" to register the appropriate set of functions.

I have read a couple of the postings in this mailing list, but i didn't find one that matched my problem so far.

Does anyone can give advice on my problem ?

Thanks
Thomas




you didn't load the frontend driver: modprobe stv0299 for a 2.6[BC] or modprobe mt312 for a 2.3.
Anyway you had better use 2.6.1: it includes precious patches to mt312.c
