I've just d/loaded 0.18 and compiled & installed but mythtv won't tune
my Nova-t (tda10045).

I'm using gentoo 2.6.11-r3.  The card works fine in other environments e.g

bash-2.05b$ ./tzap "BBC ONE"
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
tuning to 641833330 Hz
video pid 0x0258, audio pid 0x0259
status 00 | signal c8c8 | snr 9494 | ber 0001fffe | unc 00000000 |
status 1f | signal c8c8 | snr fefe | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK
status 1f | signal c8c8 | snr fefe | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK

To build mythtv I ran the following
$ configure --enable-dvb --enable-dvb-it
$ make
$ su
# make install
$ cd setup
$ ./mythtv-setup

and all is well upto the point where I scan for the channels and I get 

2005-04-19 20:59:48.699 DVB#0 DVB SI Table Parser Started
2005-04-19 20:59:49.156 DVB#0 Using DVB card 0, with frontend Philips
TDA10045HDVB-T.

2005-04-19 20:59:51.895 DVB#0 DVB signal 9393 | snr  0 | ber 1fffe | unc    0

from mythtv-setup :(

Does anyone have any idea what can be wrong?  BTW I've tried setting a
number of parameters in the initial tuning screen.  In the past I've
just entered the initial frequency of 641833330 (Sandy Heath) and all
has been well.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Cheers

Mark
