Dear team,
I'm installing a Mystique SaTiX DVB-S2 PCI card (apparently an OEM
version of KNC DVB Station S2) in a box running Ubuntu 9.04 64bit.
(2.6.28-11-server #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 02:45:36 UTC 2009 x86_64
GNU/Linux)
I've pulled the latest s2-liplianin code from:
http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin
I was able to compile and the modules do load, but I don't seem to be
able to tune to anything. Note that I've only tried to tune to DVB-S
transponders for now.

Done.
Note: Card and sat feed are known the work, I've tested it under Windows
without any issues and I have a Skystar 2 in this server that works fine.
Any suggestions what may be the issue and how I could solve it?
Thanks
Thomas
The issue had to do with an unsuccessful build of the modules from the
s2-liplianin tree. Not due to the tree itself but an issue with the
Ubuntu kernel version that had both the "generic" and "server" releases
linked to.
I cleared up the environment (removed a bunch of packages) and then
pulled the tree from http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb and rebuilt the modules.
Now the card can tune without any issues. Next I need to get the CAM
working.
