Steve,
Awesome to hear you have it working.
Could you provide a few more details of how you made it work for you?
I complied the 2.6.12.3 kernel last night, and I still see the same
errror messages as I had posted before:

Jul 21 19:59:34 goose kernel: drivers/media/dvb/b2c2/skystar2.c:
FlexCopIIB(rev.195) chip found
Jul 21 19:59:34 goose kernel: drivers/media/dvb/b2c2/skystar2.c: the
chip has 38 hardware filters
Jul 21 19:59:34 goose kernel: driver_initialize MAC address =
00:d0:d7:30:19:69:00:00
Jul 21 19:59:34 goose kernel: DVB: registering new adapter (SkyStar2).
Jul 21 19:59:34 goose kernel: i2c_readbytes: i2c read error (addr 0a,
err == -121)
Jul 21 19:59:34 goose kernel: mt312_read: ret == -121
Jul 21 19:59:34 goose kernel: skystar2: A frontend driver was not
found for device 13d0/2103 subsystem 13d0/2103

Would you mind just rattling off some more info about your config?

- Exactly which 2.6.12.x kernel you have?  What options did you choose
in menuconfig?  Did you compile driviers into the kernel or as
modules?

- Exactly which dvb patches did you apply?  dvb-apps, dvb-kernel, or
something else?
  I downloaded the dvb-apps and dvb-kernel . . . but dvb kernel errors
with "/usr/src/dvb-kernel/build-2.6/version_check.c:4:2: #error
compiling dvb-kernel works only with linux version greater or equal
2.6.13-rc1"  Seems to me you got it working ith a 2.6.12

- What frontend driver are you using? (/lib/firmware contains it)

- What does your /dev/dvb/adapter0/ directory contain?

Thanks for the help!

-Dan
