something weird is going on; my FC21 laptop is scanning channels fine with w_scan tool
the FC21 server install (mythBE) isnt finding anything. same antenna and 292e stick; just moving between USB ports.
plus side is dmesg appears to be detecting the hardware ok now; i cant see anything obviously different or any errors on mythBE side.
Firmware loads ok (dvb-demod-si2168-02.fw), mythtv-setup sees it as an available card, just no tuning lock now..
