I tested my previous kernel 2.6.19-r5 side by side with 2.6.20-r8. The /dev/dvb nodes are populated correctly in 2.6.19-r5 but not in 2.6.20-r8. The dvb configurations are identical as confirmed by manually comparing the two .config files. I'm using Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T (model 909).Specifically, the Conexant chipset. I generally followed this forum thread for configuration: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-266245-highlight-linuxtvdvbapps.html?sid=a55547658885b31563fd3a1fa0027dcb Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile kernels with my dvb configuration. 2. Start pc with said configurations. Actual Results: In 2.6.19-r5 the /dev/dvb nodes should be present. In 2.6.20-r8 the /dev/dvb nodes will not be populated.

Attach dmesg output here please, for both kernels.

Information as requested.
Please post lsmod output from a broken kernel

You need to load the cx88-dvb module
(In reply to comment #11) > You need to load the cx88-dvb module > It works if i load that module manually. But i don't understand why it didn't autoload it like it does for 2.6.19-r5.
