Hi Thierry Thanks for the advice - I got there (well at least scan works now).
There was one extra problem not documented on either... http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_install_DVB_device_drivers ...or... e.g. http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV_Nova-T_500_PCI <http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV_Nova-T_500_PCI> The "make" didn't work (this is for an Ubuntu 7.04 desktop, all basic updates and a few things extra, but "nearly new"). Problem was that /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/source didn't exist. So making that ( i.e. "source" in that directory) a symlink to /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic/ was enough and "make" went about its jolly business. (Also installed kernel-package in the process but I'm not sure if it effected anything). I'm guessing this is an Ubuntu specific issue? Any idea when this build and firmware are going to come in the kernel ready-to-go? I tested it out with scan, mplayer etc and all went well. MythTV is a bit funky (couldn¹t get it to just take in the channel.conf file and it gets worse signal strength and BER than bash-shell bizarre :) Cheers, Rod.
