If I 'gnome-dvb-setup' it goes through Device selection Connexant CX22702 DVB-T (Adapter: 0, Frontend: 0) Digitaler Antennenempfang Country and antenna selection: I enter Germany, Berlin Scanning for channels: Signal quality and Signal strenght do not show anything, After 30-60 minutes the continue button is again activated, but there is not any channel shown in the channels subwindow. This happens with and without "Select scrambled channels" selected. Save channels I select: directory: /home_impala/rose/ setup_digital_TV_channels.conf Configuration finished: I see: The device Connexant CX22702 DVB-T has been configured sucessfully. The generated channels file can be used to configure your devices in the control center. Configure Another Device I look for the file setup_digital_TV_channels.conf, but I can't find it: rose@impala:/home_impala/rose(67)$ ll -la -t | head insgesamt 12003748 -rw-rw-r-- 1 portage portage 911540 14.

Probably need to file a bug upstream. Different regions have varying TV standards, so it's not always possible to test other people's configurations.
Also, gnome-dvb-daemon (or specifically gnome-dvb-setup program) requires that media-tv/linuxtv-dvb-apps is installed to choose channel data for countries.

Please verify that and, if still valid, report to upstream and paste here the link to let us track the issue
