ARRRGGGG!!! I'M GETTING MAD!!! I'm using Kernel 2.6.8.1 I have recompiled it to support the Nexus-S Sat Card following the instructions of http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/DVB_installation
Use the dvb drivers from CVS.

I have this same problem with Mandrake 10.1 official and kernel 2.6.8.1. It seems that udev rules are not detected correctly. Check if you dont have anything on /dev/dvb -folder. If you dont, then you should try thispatch to get it work. It helps for me and many other.
