Hi there,
 
I am new to VDR and to DVB-T and I have been trying to configure VDR 1.3.34 to work with 2 Hauppauge Nova-T DVB-T cards under Debian (kernel 2.6.13) and have run into some problems. Can someone confirm that the output of dmesg (below) looks to be ok in respect of the NOVA-T cards?
 
dmesg output;

When we run w_scan to generate channels.conf we get the following error;
 
moon2:/tmp/w_scan# ./w_scan -o3 >> /var/lib/vdrdevel/channels.conf

main:1779: FATAL: ***** NO USEABLE DVB CARD FOUND. *****
Please check wether dvb driver is loaded and
verify that no dvb application (i.e. vdr) is running.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance.
