[linux-dvb] Nova S - tunng failed

["Paul Vaclik" <pvaclik@broadmediatechnology.com>]

Hi,

Im using linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1 and linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0 on Redhat 9.0 kernel
2.4.20-8 with a WinTV Nova-S PCI

In got everything to compile and after using “insmod.sh load” everything
appears to be in place but I cant get any output from the card.
Using scan dvb-s/Astra-19.2E gives:

>>> tune to: 12551:v:0:22000
WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!!

The satellite cable definitely works as I tested it with a set top box.

Using apps/test/diseqc gives the following which seems to indicate that the
card is alive:

diseqc test: using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0'

…etc

Can anybody give me some advice as to what is missing?

I have the following config:
