I have tried to make my Technisat Skystar 2 work.

This howto seems to be out of date. The skystar2.ko was removed like 4 years ago. It was replaced by the b2c2-flexcop-drivers.


The thing is that suse ships most of the required kernel modules out of
the box; iter sunt
stv0299
mt312
budget
Only skystar2 is missing, so that I have no /dev/video0 and no
/dev/dvb/adapter0/video0 as required by all these dvb players.
ls /dev/dvb/adapter0/
demux0  dvr0  frontend0  net0

Furthermore this is totally correct. /dev/video0 is provided by analog-video-cards or by full-featured (with a overlay-chip on board) devices.

The SkyStar2 is neither of it.

Did you try to use Kaffeine or mplayer or (dvb)scan?

regards,
Patrick.
