Greetings folks!
First of all, thank you for the excellent knoppmyth distro - it represents a lot of hard work!
I am doing my first mythtv / knoppmyth install on
ASUS M2NPV-VM
NVidia GeForce 6150
integrated sound
1GB Crucial RAM
2x PCHDTV 5500
Two days ago I had this system up and running with a WinTV150 under R5D1 (with upgraded lirc for the remote and upgraded alsa for the sound) Nothing worth saving, so I did a clean install with R5E50 b/c I read it includes the new alsa & new kernel with the HD5500 drivers. Also was hoping that it might include new lirc (not sure of that one yet).
Enough background, here's the problem:
The cards don't seem to be seeing any digital channels at all. I'm connected to the ex-Susquehanna/newly-Comcast cable network out of Brunswick, Maine - and have a digital cable set top box which has been working including several HDTV channels. So there should be some dtv channels there - presumably not EVERYTHING is encrypted...(?)
I've run the dtvscan and get nothing either VSB or QAM. If I run "dtvscan /dev/video0" I get a very few channels (4,8,9,10,11,12,13) with messages of "look for sync / Can't find sync" for each of them.
During dtvscan run I get lots of these in my dmesg: "
Code:
cx88[0]/2: cx8802_timeout
In my dmesg, I see the following suspicious chunk about recognizing the cards:

I tried installing the latest drivers from pcHDTV.com, but couldn't due to the lack of kernel headers. When I tried to apt-get them it told me they were already installed (Custom install, no version info available). Tried removing and re-getting them to no avail...
Does any one of you gurus out there have some tips for me to get these cards fired up?
