I was using 2.4, and the CVS snapshot of the past few days only had the
change in the 2.6 patches. Now I'm using 2.6.0 (though for different reasons)
and it's all working fine.

I seem to have got the card working to some degree for now. I am now
able to lock on to some transponders with dvbtune and even get some
XML information from apps/scan. So it seems I have an STV0299 after all.
I must have done something wrong when patching the Windows driver to
tell me it was the 0297.
