i'm trying to get working my new dvb-s technisat skystar-USB box in
my 667mhz macintosh powerbook G4, using the last Mandriva-Linux-2005-
Limited-Edition distro for ppc with 2.6.13-rc5 custom made kernel.
Unfortunately, after several days of trials i'm still running into
trouble, the reason that's why i claim some helps and advices from
the linuxtv community :

ohci_hcd and address 3

1st problem.
Aug 17 18:12:40 localhost kernel: b2c2-flexcop: MAC address =
00:d0:d7:0c:b8:1c
Is this MAC address correct?
yes, it's the correct mac address
Aug 17 18:12:41 localhost kernel: flexcop_usb: submitting urb 0
failed with -90.
2nd problem.
It's clear that the device refused to work, although the modules were
loaded correctly. I suspect but i'm not sure that technisat has
changed somehow the hardware in this newest revision of the model, or
may be i forget some patches to apply to the dvb driver...I would be
pleased if someone can help me to found the origin of my troubles.
So the innards of that box (plastic case) are not different to the
older revision (metal case).
So the first problem for you is, that I recently "fixed" an big/
little-endian issue for the flexcop-chip when running on big-endian-
hardware such as PPC.
Unfortunately this change is apparently wrong when operating an
flexcop-based USB box on a PPC. (the first problem from above) The
big-endian-issue is checked only at compile-time and because the PCI
and the USB driver are using the same flexcop-chip-driver. It's
working correctly for the PCI card on PPC...
In the meantime I learnt that the flexcop-register-stuff I wrote for
the flexcop-chips is not optimal... especially when looking at the
endian-issues that can take place.
And it gets worse: I don't even have an idea how to fix it for you,
without breaking support for the PCI card on PPC.
You can try editing manually the flexcop-reg.h
and substitute this line
#include "flexcop_ibi_value_be.h"
with
#include "flexcop_ibi_value_le.h"
and try again.
No, unfortunately i didn't get any improvement by replacing in
"DVB/ build-2.6/flexcop-reg.h" the line #include
"flexcop_ibi_value_be.h" with #include "flexcop_ibi_value_le.h".
As you didn't specify it and i didn't know what i was doing, i tried
first to make the change before compiling the driver, so i removed
the old /usr/src/dvb-kernel/ dir replaced it with a fresh new one then :
# cd /usr/local/src/DVB
# ./makelinks /usr/src/linux
# cd DVB/build-2.6
then i edited the file flexcop-reg.h
# make
# ./insmod.sh load
pluged the device...no improvement
Then in a second attempt, i edited the file after the compil process.
So, i removed the old /usr/src/dvb-kernel/ dir replaced it with a
fresh new one then :
# cd /usr/local/src/DVB
# ln -s linux/include include
# cd build-2.6
# make
then i edited the file flexcop-reg.h
# ./insmod.sh load
pluged the device...also no improvement

--------------------------------
Today, i tried to use the kernel DVB drivers instead of the CVS
linuxTV ones so, i recompiled my custom 2.6.13-rc5 kernel with B2C2
drivers configured as modules, restarted the computer, then :
# modprobe b2c2-flexcop-usb
modules loaded correctly without any problem.
I pluged the device...i got nearly the same messages as before except
from one or two line(s) :
[root@localhost root]# tail /var/log/messages

Hopefully, this modest contribution will help you to resolve the
problem.
If you need more informations, please don't hesitate.
