Any ideas? In 2.6.14, there is only analog support for FusionHDTV5 Lite. Support for digital ATSC (QAM/VSB) has been added in 2.6.15. 2.6.15 is still in development, and there are some pretty nast bugs in it, although most are fixed in 2.6.15-rc3 (released tonight). The best route is to just install the new modules from cvs. howto-wiki: http://linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/How_to_build_from_CVS I usually just point people to the wiki, but because of the recent merge of the v4l + dvb cvs trees, I've included the detailed instructions above for your convenience. Here are the instructions: 1) Check-out the newly merged v4l-dvb cvs repository: cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvs/video4linux login cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvs/video4linux co v4l-dvb 2) Change into the v4l-dvb directory: cd v4l-dvb 3) (optional) If you are recompiling the cvs modules against a different kernel, clean the tree and kernel version info: make distclean 4) Compile the modules: make 5) Install them: (as root) make install 6) Remove the previous modules from memory: modprobe -r bt878 && modprobe -r bttv (you might want to use "rmmod" instead of "modprobe -r" -- your choice) 7) Load up the new modules: modprobe dvb-bt8xx For me, this loads up everything that I need... If it doesnt work for you, you might have to load them in order..... modprobe bttv && modprobe bt878 && modprobe dvb-bt8xx ... or you can just reboot your machine, but you must remember to load up the dvb-bt8xx manual at boot-up, since this module will not load automatically, unless you set up your startup scripts appropriately. This should do it for you. Cheers, Michael Krufky
