[linux-dvb] Kernel 2.6.12.2 + Haupp. Nexus-s 2.3: no DVB device found, once more !

[Emmanuel Roux]

For those who are searching for a solution to this problem:

create /etc/udev/rules.d/54-dvb.rules   (replace 54 by your udev version)

KERNEL="dvb0.dvr*",        NAME="dvb/adapter0/dvr%n"
KERNEL="dvb0.demux*",      NAME="dvb/adapter0/demux%n"

KERNEL="dvb0.net*",        NAME="dvb/adapter0/net%n"

KERNEL="dvb1.net*",        NAME="dvb/adapter1/net%n"

KERNEL="dvb2.net*",        NAME="dvb/adapter2/net%n"

KERNEL="dvb3.dvr*",        NAME="dvb/adapter3/dvr%n"
KERNEL="dvb3.demux*",      NAME="dvb/adapter3/demux%n"
KERNEL="dvb3.frontend*",   NAME="dvb/adapter3/frontend%n"
KERNEL="dvb3.audio*",      NAME="dvb/adapter3/audio%n"
KERNEL="dvb3.ca*",         NAME="dvb/adapter3/ca%n"
KERNEL="dvb3.osd*",        NAME="dvb/adapter3/osd%n"
KERNEL="dvb3.net*",        NAME="dvb/adapter3/net%n"
KERNEL="dvb3.video*",      NAME="dvb/adapter3/video%n"


And that's it...
