There is driver for TT DVB-C 1500 but it has problmes with QAM128 signal. I have tried to increase timeouts and still tuning gets locked only occasionally with my card. The kernel modules are budget-ci and stv0297. I don't have access to non-QAM128 signals so I don't know how they work. It would be nice to get that card working so what is the situation with the driver development? I recently made some testing with stv0297_cs2 driver and used it with my DVB-C 1500 card. With some changes it compiled as the driver for DVB-C 1500 card and the budget-ci registers the frontend correctly. But it does not work. Of course that's not a surprise because the driver is not made for the card. Here's dmesg debug messages for the cs2 driver used with TT: spectrum inversion: off symbolrate: 6900000, regval: 0000000000000000 initialized - waiting for the locks now waiting for WBAGC lock WBAGC has lock waiting for equalizer 1 lock timed out And that repeats. Changes that I made to get it 'work': - Change the name to stv0297 (files and api functions) - Added 'u8 invert:1' and 'u8* inittab' to struct stv0297_config in header file. - In function stv0297_readregsI changed the i2c_transfer to be done in to parts. I'm not familiar with the kernel drivers nor stv0297 so I have no idea for further modifications. I hope that some developer could try to solve this problem in some way or give advice for me to debug it.
