It contains pre-compiled amd64 modules for the currently valid kernel version of Ubuntu Precise. If you install it on a different environment (Debian or Ubuntu 32bit), all the modules will be re-built automatically and this take 10-30 minutes depending on your CPU power. Give it a try with an Ubuntu Precise installation to save time. Also use the patched dkms package from the yavdr repos. The upstream Ubuntu package dkms contains a bug that causes very slow de-installation of the linux-media-dkms package.

[vdr] Multiple DVB-S(2) tuners
Let's say I will install DVB-S and DVB-S2 tuner (so the first can't play most HD channels), or I install 2 identical tuners but connect them to two different sattelites. How to tell VDR which channel is available on which hardware? Marx ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Marx For this, you can use diseqc.conf file where the first card (for example adaptar0) is :1 and th second is :2 Some like this: # :1 #Here diseqc config for adapter0 :2 #Here diseqc config for adapter1 # In VDR 1.7.27 ( I don't remember if in older versions) you can configure it using osd menu.

It's not Menu - Configurations - DVB It's: Menu - Configurations - LNB I guess what you are referring to here is device bonding, but that's not what applies to the OP's problem. The assignment of DVB adapters to DiSEqC setups has to be done manually (i.e. with a text editor) in diseqc.conf.
