Hi,
I'm trying to get Hauppauge Nova-T 500 Dual DVB-T (ID 2040:9950) to work on
lenny. The driver and firmware loads but I get

dvb-usb: no frontend was attached by 'Hauppauge Nova-T 500 Dual DVB-T'

and /dev/dvb/adapter0 is missing frontend0 device which I found out is quite
important:)
Did anyone get this card to work? I've googled like hell but to no end.

thanks for your help
martin

Hi Martin,

Is the module getting loaded correctly, can you check to see if it
shows up under 'lsmod'. you may have to manually load the module and
if that works put the module in to the '/etc/modules' file for it to
be automatically loaded at boot time.

And you might have to load the module with some options eg 'modprode
<module> card=<number> tuner=<number>' and then if that works create a
'/etc/module.d/<module> file with the relevant info in it.

couple ideas to look

Regards
Dale

the module loads correctly even the firmware looks ok. it just doesn't load
any frontend driver. I've found a few people having the same problem but
couldn't find any solution. this card should be ok but there's so many
revisions that I might just have the screwed up one.
