Hello there, this is my first contact with dvb-t and so far it actually worked quite well: the blue led is already on :) but now im stuck what i did so far: i compiled the necessary modules from the 2.6.13 kernel, copied the necessary firmware (dvb-usb-avertv-a800-02.fw) to /lib/firmware and modprobed the modules. as a result dmesg reported a success and in /dev/dvb/adapter0/ the devices demux0, dvr0 and net0 were created. happily i installed the dvb-applications and tried to scan for channels: main:2216: FATAL: failed to open '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0': 2 No such file or directory Well so I checked out the latest cvs but still no change. Well there was some error now when loading the firmware but after replugging the device it worked again. But still no frontend0. I have those modules loaded as described in the linuxtv dvb-usb wiki page: - i2c-core - crc32 - firmware_class - dib3000-common - dib3000mc - dvb-usb - dvb-usb-dibusb-common - dvb-usb-a800 - dvb-core.ko - dvb-pll.ko Well actually in the second attempt I used the ./insmod.sh load command which loaded about everything possible (but crc32 which i have compiled into the kernel). Well do you have any hints? Here's the dmesg output for the second attempt (dvb-kernel cvs-version) Linux video capture interface: v1.00 saa7146: register extension 'dvb'. saa7146: register extension 'budget dvb'. saa7146: register extension 'budget_ci dvb'. saa7146: register extension 'budget_av'. usbcore: registered new driver ttusb usbcore: registered new driver ttusb-dec b2c2-flexcop: B2C2 FlexcopII/II(b)/III digital TV receiver chip loaded successfully usbcore: registered new driver b2c2_flexcop_usb usbcore: registered new driver cinergyT2 usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_vp7045 usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_dtt200u usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_dibusb_mb usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_dibusb_mc dvb-usb: found a 'AVerMedia AverTV DVB-T USB 2.0 (A800)' in cold state, will try to load a firmware dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-avertv-a800-02.fw' to the 'Cypress FX2' dvb-usb: error while transferring firmware (transferred size: -71, block size: 16) dvb-usb: could not restart the USB controller CPU. dvb-usb: AVerMedia AverTV DVB-T USB 2.0 (A800) error while loading driver (-22) dvb_usb_a800: probe of 3-1:1.0 failed with error -22 usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_a800 usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_nova_t_usb2 usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_umt_010 usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_digitv usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_cxusb usb 3-1: USB disconnect, address 2 usb 3-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 dvb-usb: found a 'AVerMedia AverTV DVB-T USB 2.0 (A800)' in cold state, will try to load a firmware dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-avertv-a800-02.fw' to the 'Cypress FX2' dvb-usb: AVerMedia AverTV DVB-T USB 2.0 (A800) successfully initialized and connected. usb 3-1: USB disconnect, address 3 dvb-usb: generic DVB-USB module successfully deinitialized and disconnected. usb 3-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 dvb-usb: found a 'AVerMedia AverTV DVB-T USB 2.0 (A800)' in warm state. dvb-usb: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software demuxer.
