Is anyone having success with a pcHDTV 2000 card and R5A15 with the new DVB drivers?

During mythtv-setup step (2) Capture cards, I get:

Code:
Card type: Digital Video Broadcast card (DVB)
DVB Card Number: 0
Card Name: Could not open card #0!
Card Type: No such device or address


My card seems to be recognized at boot:

Code:
bttv0: Bt878 (rev 17) at 0000:00:14.0, irq: 10, latency: 32, mmio: 0xe3001000
bttv0: detected: pcHDTV HD-2000 TV [card=112], PCI subsystem ID is 7063:2000
bttv0: using: pcHDTV HD-2000 TV [card=112,autodetected]
bttv0: gpio: en=00000000, out=00000000 in=0000007f [init]
bttv0: using tuner=42
bttv0: i2c: checking for MSP34xx @ 0x80... not found
bttv0: i2c: checking for TDA9875 @ 0xb0... not found
bttv0: i2c: checking for TDA7432 @ 0x8a... not found
tuner 1-0061: chip found @ 0xc2 (bt878 #0 [sw])
tuner 1-0061: type set to 42 (Philips 1236D ATSC/NTSC daul in)
bttv0: registered device video0
bttv0: registered device vbi0
bttv0: add subdevice "dvb0"


Am I missing a step?

I was getting the same problem last night when trying to set up the DVB drivers, but with a HD3000 card.

My heavy-handed solution was to run mythtv-setup, delete all capture cards, reboot, quit out of the frontend after it ran, run mythtv-setup, and add the capture cards back in, at which point the card was recognized.

In trying to set up the channels, though, I could somehow get the card into that "not open"able state, which required the whole process again.

cesman recommended I use the dvb-bt8xx module for the 2000, so I:

Code:
modprobe dvb-bt8xx


And then I could set it up properly in mythtv-setup. Now I need to figure out how to map the channels, as that seems to be the complex part of the new DVB drivers. I'm going to try the newest version of the DVB_fixer.sh to see if I can bypass the manual part...
