[linux-dvb] Newbie help : No TV output

["Dany Schuerewegen" <danysch@europeonline.net>]

Hi,
I am having trouble watching TV with my DVB-S card ( Technotrend Rev 1.3 )
When I start tuxview, I get the following error:

>tuxview -d 0
setting dev to /dev/video0
get capabilities: Unknown error 515
no overlay possible
no capture possible
get window: unknown error 515
get frame buffer: unknown error 515

I tried to get the gVideo app, ( from version 0.8.2 ) and it gave me the
same 'unknown error 515' whenever it tries to do an ioctl on /dev/ost/video0
( linked to /dev/video and /dev/video0).
I am using a 2.4.17 kernel with the latest DVB cvs, but I have also tried
with the 0.9.3 distribution and a 2.4.3 kernel, with the same result.
Here's the relevant dmesg output :
