Hello Peter. thanks again, for sending the ST sample code. I did some rework on the driver that i was working on. I have put the stb0899 driver (driver alone: http://kromtek.com/dvb/stb0899.tar.bz2 and the entire tree as that which exists in kernel: http://kromtek.com/dvb/mp-stb0899-c.tar.bz2) I have put in ST copyright and it is under GPL as well. If you could take a look at stb0899.tar.bz2 and make your comments whether it would be okay for me to give out this driver for testing to a couple of Linux users. Currently DVB-S works quite fine for me, although at some points of time i get NOCARRIER from the DVB-S search algorithm. I am about to start testing DVB-S2 with this tree. It would be appreciated and helpful, if you can make your comments on the same. Thanks, Manu
