So you have the SkyStar2 properly working now with the dvb-kernel, that 
comes with kernel-2.6.10_rc1?

I know that 2.6.10_rc1 has an updated and working dvb-kernel, but when I 
tried that kernel-version, I got random hardlocks (which others experienced 
as well; I'm using an nforce2 mobo, maybe it has something to do with that 
again).

Today I really thought, the dvb-kernel of kernel-2.6.8.1 fixed the skystar 
problem, at first it seemed to work, but then again it started acting 
strangely, either that VDSB error, or a "no lock for channel .. on device 
2" with following emergency exit.

I don't know, what else to do, I'm a little frustrated right now, maybe I 
should swap over to another budget card as second one (maybe a Hauppauge 
Nova or Nova-CI?).

I just want a working machine with two cards, one FF, and the second one 
preferably a budget, so that I'm able to also take a look at HDTV streams. 
Any suggestions are welcome.
