    I have a Dell Mini 1012 running Ubuntu 11.04 with (what turns out to be) all the bells and whistles - including what lsusb reports as:
    Code:
    Bus 001 Device 005: ID 2040:2011 Hauppauge WinTV MiniCard [Dell Digital TV Receiver]
    
    So, I follow these instructions (I have VLC installed anyway) up to

    Where I run into
    Code:
    scanning /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/uk-EmleyMoor
    using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
    main:2284: FATAL: failed to open '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0': 2 No such file or directory
    I take it there should be such a file or directory...

    Also, Me TV says 'There are no DVB devices available', which is probably part of the same problem.

    I've been poking at (more like :wallbash: ...) this for a couple of days and have got nowhere, so if anyone what I'm missing...?
