I'm running Debian Sid and am trying to use an HD-3000 with 2.6.12-rc5-git4. I've compiled and booted the kernel without a problem. Modules videodev, dvb_core, dvb_p11 & or51132 all load successfully (or are at least present with lsmod), but despite having an up to date udev package installed and running I don't have a /dev/dvb.

I don't recognize the dvb_p11 module. I have an HD-3000 running on Fedora Core 3 with the 2.6.12-rc3 kernel and the key module I have installed is cx88_dvb. Here's some of what lsmod shows running on my system. Note I also have a WinTV PVR-350 installed in this system:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.6.12-rc3]# lsmod | grep -i dvb
cx88_dvb                9540  0
cx8802                 14916  1 cx88_dvb
mt352                   9092  1 cx88_dvb
or51132                11524  1 cx88_dvb
video_buf_dvb           8964  1 cx88_dvb
cx88xx                 62304  3 cx88_dvb,cx8802,cx8800
video_buf 30148 6 cx88_dvb,cx8802,video_buf_dvb,cx8800,cx88xx,bttv

(for some reason I also have dvb_core statically compiled into my kernel - don't recall why - but that's why it's not showing up as a module)

I've tried restarting udev but there is still no /dev/dvb. Shouldn't the stock udev package create these device files? I have also tried using the 10-pchdtv.permissions 10-pchdtv.rules files from http://www.pchdtv.com. I'm not sure if I was using them correctly though.

If you have /etc/udev/rules.d/10-pchdtv.rules and /etc/udev/permissions.d/10-pchdtv.permissions then this should be all set. It's probably because the right modules aren't being loaded that these aren't doing anything. They won't be referenced until the drivers for the hardware are properly loaded & initialized. If you want, however, you can edit /etc/udev/udev.conf and change udev_log to "yes". This will output some debugging information into the syslog.
