Hi, unfortunately my DVB-S machine has just died; I'll have to wait till 
tomorrow for it to be rebooted before I can try it.

In the meantime, I tested it with a DVB-T card (changed frequency setup and 
disabled DISEQC). I don't see any of your issues with that.

It has to be either the lack of DISEQC or is specific to your card type. Oh, 
or it could be 2.6 I suppose. Target kernel for me right now is 2.4.25. I'll 
get 2.6 going on that machine as well.
