Drivers were changed in the 2.6.10 kernel. I finally figured out that if I
recompile myth against the new drivers it would work. In the settings.pro
file in the mythtv source, under the dvb section, you can specify the
location of the driver source (/dvb/linux/frontend.h). Un-commenting the dvb
lines and setting it yo the location of your kernel source should give you a
working myth install.
Sorry for that hasty explanation - I'm just on my way out - but if you need
further help just ask.
