Well I'm not one of the knowledgable ones, as you well know Whytey, but I have an idea! I reckon the dmesg output shows that the cards are fine from a kernel point of view as it seems to have detected them. I'm wondering whether it's a udev issue and that the permissions are such that MythTV can't see them. I remember having to do some configuration in udev to get my permissions working. Here's what my 2 DVB-T cards look like: $ ls -l /dev/dvb/adapter0/ total 0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 4 May 7 2005 demux0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 5 May 7 2005 dvr0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 3 May 7 2005 frontend0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 7 May 7 2005 net0 $ ls -l /dev/dvb/adapter1/ total 0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 68 Jan 27 17:22 demux0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 69 Jan 27 17:22 dvr0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 67 Jan 27 17:22 frontend0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root mythtv 212, 71 Jan 27 17:22 net0 And here's my /etc/udev/permissions.d/20-dvb.permissions: dvb/adapter[0-3]*/*:root:mythtv:0666 BTW - not sure if you're using nvram or not but I also had to change 50-udev.permissions to allow mythtv to use it: # misc devices ###nvram:root:root:0660 ###rtc:root:root:0644 nvram:root:root:0666 rtc:root:root:0666 Hope that helps in some way. Sorry if it's a total red herring!
