I'm sorry for that, the reason is that I wasn't able to connect to my 
"serious" mail-service at the time I entered this list.  Not by any chance I 
would use this mail-account for anything serious ;-)

Anyhow, I figured that something would be wrong with my channel-list.  So I 
started the setup-program and deleted prior settings for channels and card 
(ie answering yes on the two first questions).  Well, that didn't do it 
either.  But since I would like to include native lirc-support in mythtv I 
recompiled it.  And after a recompile, everything worked out just fine. :-)

The only thing I'm woundering about now is if there exists a plugin that can 
make use of the radio-chip on the card?  That would be the plugin I would 
wish for to make MythTV a complete suite.  And, after taking a quick 
teorethical look at M$ MediaCenterEdition (maybe I stepped over a line here, 
mention a M$-product?), I would say that I'm not going to even try to 
install it!  MythTV works great, even though I had to "fool" the 
xmltv-grabber (norway and sweden has got seperate grabbers now).
