I have an Air2PC card installed. I have the firmware (dvb-fe-nxt2002.fw) in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware. When I do dmesg I get the following:
 
b2c2-flexcop: B2C2 FlexcopII/II(b)/III digital TV receiver chip loaded successfully
flexcop-pci: will use the HW PID filter.
flexcop-pci: card revision 2
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKB] enabled at IRQ 18
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:04.0[A] -> Link [LNKB] -> GSI 18 (level, high) -> IRQ 201
DVB: registering new adapter (FlexCop Digital TV device).
b2c2-flexcop: MAC address = 00:d0:d7:30:1a:96
b2c2-flexcop: i2c master_xfer failed
ivtv: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
ivtv:  ==================== START INIT IVTV ====================

ivtv:  any module options, when mailing the ivtv-users mailinglist.

b2c2-flexcop: initialization of 'Air2PC/AirStar 2 ATSC 1st generation' at the 'PCI' bus controlled by a 'FlexCopIIb' complete
 
And with lspci -v:
 
01:04.0 Network controller: Techsan Electronics Co Ltd B2C2 FlexCopII DVB chip / Technisat SkyStar2 DVB card (rev 02)
        Subsystem: Techsan Electronics Co Ltd B2C2 FlexCopII DVB chip / Technisat SkyStar2 DVB card
        Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 201
        Memory at ff4f0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
        I/O ports at cc00 [size=32]

Now it say it loaded the card successfully but in ivtv it says:
 
b2c2-flexcop: i2c master_xfer failed
b2c2-flexcop: i2c master_xfer failed
nxt200x: nxt200x_readbytes: i2c read error (addr 0x0a, err == -121)
Unknown/Unsupported NXT chip: 00 00 00 00 00
b2c2-flexcop: i2c master_xfer failed

Is this normal?
 
Also, how the hell do I create a channels.conf for azap and dvbscan and other scanning programs? I have the attached from atennaweb.org. How do I change that info into a properly formatted channel.conf file. Is there a template or layout directions somewhere?
 
Thank You
