[mythtv-users] Hard time with Hauppauge Nexus-S setup

Hello list,

after lurking on this list for about two weeks and googling 'til going
blind i'm ready to give up... *sigh*

System: Redhat9 with vanilla Kernel 2.4.22, packages installed/upgraded
with apt-get as of today (which apparently f*cked up the rpm-database,
rpm -qa dies with segfault)

VGA-Card: Gainward Geforce4 Powerpack (/w TV-Out)
TV-Card: Hauppauge Nexus-s

Drivers: linuxtv-dvb-1.0.0 (also tried linux-dvb.2003-08-01)

Could some kind soul point me into the right direction how to setup this
beast for use with mythtv?
I'm aware of the thread 'video capture card list for MythTV' 
(http://lists.snowman.net/pipermail/mythtv-users/2003-July/008852.html)
which states 
'Almost. It's being worked on. Help coding/testing would be appreciated'
(for the testing-part i'm willing to jump in, btw.),
but after wading through umpteen+1 messages on the list i got the
impression there are some brave souls out there 
having this card up-n-running.

I know the card/driver combo works (got vdr working after a hour or
two), but for the sake of my life can't figure out 
how to configure mythtv to use this card.



regards & TIA
