I've been running NEWSTRUCT with kernel 2.4.20pre5 for a while now.
with DVB-S 1.3 only, no drop outs.
Yesterday added Nova-T card, no long dropouts either.
Some oddities tho, short dropouts which appears as areas of squares in
the picture, also short breaks in sound.
This specially in NOVA-T channels.
I have DVB-S as card 1 and Nova as card 2.
Also got errors, GPIO8 irq, whats that ??
Irq 8 is RTC, as far as I know.
Is radio supposed to work with 1.1.10 ?
