Hi Justin, As someone who has the same card/distro, I can offer some assistance. Jani's guide is now quite out of date. It is no longer necessary to recompile the kernel at all. The command you need to use to load the driver is:
modprobe dvb-bt8xx That is all. It had me stuck for quite a while too. You should find that this will create the dvb items in /dev/. The other issue you are likely to encounter (if not already) is with lirc for the remote. Again Jani's guide should not be followed due to native support being added to lirc. Just use the latest version - no patches required. If you have any other questions I am happy to help. Good luck, Matthew. > > I have the Dvico Lite card working with no problems using > Jarods guide and kernel 2.6.10 (I haven't had a chance to > upgrade to 2.6.11 yet but I don't predict any problems.).
