[mythtv-users] Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T-500 LNA Problems

[The GUIGuy]

I'm trying to set up a new install using MythTV 0.22 RC1 & MythBuntu 
9.10 utilizing the same hardware driving a working 9.04 system. The 
tuner card is a Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T-500

I definitely need to have the LNA (Low Noise Amplifier) turned on to get 
sufficient signal for a lock. The following did the trick under 
MythBuntu 9.04


In /etc/modprobe.d/options add:
options dvb_usb_dib0700 force_lna_activation=1
and then
sudo modprobe dvb_usb_dib0700


This didn't work on the new install. I then changed 
/etc/modprobe.d/options to /etc/modprobe.d/options.conf as suggested by 
the modprobe warning.

Again, no luck.

Can anyone help?
