Hi,since upgrading from Ubuntu 6.1 to Gutsy, 7.1 and Myth 0.21, for some
reason my /dev/dvb directory and devices do not exist.
I have 2 x WinTV Nova-t PCI cards.

lspci shows :-

02:06.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and
Audio Decoder (rev 05)
02:06.2 Multimedia controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio
Decoder [MPEG Port] (rev 05)
02:06.4 Multimedia controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio
Decoder [IR Port] (rev 05)
02:08.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and
Audio Decoder (rev 05)
02:08.2 Multimedia controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio
Decoder [MPEG Port] (rev 05)
02:08.4 Multimedia controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio
Decoder [IR Port] (rev 05)
02:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16
(CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)


And dmesg:-

root at myth1:/dev# dmesg |grep -i dvb
[   41.168793] CORE cx88[0]: subsystem: 0070:9002, board: Hauppauge Nova-T

[   41.653812] input: cx88 IR (Hauppauge Nova-T DVB-T as /class/input/input6
root at myth1:/dev#


So it seems the cards are picked up ok. They worked fine in Ubuntu 6.1.

Any clues would be most welcome, so I can get this box back up and running.

Thanks

Mike
