Not sure.  Do an...

# lsmod | more

and see if dvb-core, dvb-ttpci, stv0299, etc. is on the list of loaded modules.  Also, you can check /usr/src/2.6.12-1.1372/drivers/media/dvb to see if directories like common, frontend, dvb-ttpci, etc. exist.  If they don't exist, you need to get dvb-kernel installed from http://www.linuxtv.org.  If they do exist, you are good to go, but you need new firmware before the Nexus card will be recognized.  Get it from http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/dvb-ttpci-01.fw-261f and save it your firmware directory as dvb-ttpci-01.fw (remove the -261f suffix). If you don't know what your firmware directory is (I didn't and I ended up putting it in the wrong place -- wasting a day or two or troubleshooting), do...

# grep FIRMWARE_DIR= /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent

As for Nexus...I am a newbie and over the last few months have struggled through a Myth+DVB install.  Good news is that I have it running successfully now and am very happy with it!!

I would highly recommend you switch over to FC4 per Jarod's new (and excellent) guide -- http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php.  He makes it very easy, but there isn't much help for DVB/Nexus users.  There are a few others out there, but they are mostly outdated.  I have documented my install steps in fair amount of detail and will send it out when I've cleaned it up.

I did an install from Jarods guide and want to add a Nexus-s card to my system. Can anyone tell me if the DVB drivers are installed in the Kernel already or do I need to do an install for them seperately or recompile the Kernel,  I'm currently running FC3 2.6.12-1.1372?
 
Also, is there a "how-to" posted anywhere in getting a DVB card going with Myth?
 
Thanks.
