In 0.25 I instead get this from the backend:

2012-04-22 14:08:41.875453 W [4541/4541] CoreContext dvbchannel.cpp:414
(CheckOptions) - DVBChan(24:/dev/dvb/adapter_290e/frontend0): 'Auto'
bandwidth parameter unsupported by this driver.
2012-04-22 14:08:42.996041 W [4541/4541] CoreContext dvbchannel.cpp:414
(CheckOptions) - DVBChan(34:/dev/dvb/adapter_290e/frontend0): 'Auto'
bandwidth parameter unsupported by this driver.

And my mythtvsetup log shows:

2012-04-23 08:40:17.749530 E  FE_GET_INFO ioctl failed
(/dev/dvb/adapter_290e/frontend0)
eno: No such device (19)

This only appears when I run mythtvsetup as root though.

As seen above I've played with udev to get my cards to stay in the same

Since this has been done for my Nova-T 500 as well, and both of the
adapters at /dev/dvb/adapter_Nova500_1 and 2 work fine, this is not the
problem.
