Hello, I've bought a WinTV Nova-T PCI (Model 928) DVB-T adapter card and want to use it with Linux (Gentoo Linux, Kernel 2.6.14.2). I'm working with an AMD64 (I'm using a 64-bit gentoo linux) with Nforce4 chipset. I figured out that I need the following Kernel modules: CONFIG_VIDEO_CX88 CONFIG_VIDEO_CX88_DVB CONFIG_DVB CONFIG_DVB_CORE In this configuration the menuconfig configurator will select the following modules automatically: CONFIG_DVB_CX22702 CONFIG_DVB_OR51132 CONFIG_DVB_LGDT330X I've compiled these modules directly into the kernel. However I've also tested this configuration with modules. If I look on to the controllers mounted on the bord of the DVB-T card, I will also find a CX-22702 and a CX-2388x. However the kernel detects the video device with this messages at boot time: cx2388x v4l2 driver version 0.0.5 loaded ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [APC1] enabled at IRQ 16 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:05:06.0[A] -> Link [APC1] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 225 CORE cx88[0]: subsystem: 0070:9002, board: Hauppauge Nova-T DVB-T [card=18,autodetected] TV tuner 4 at 0x1fe, Radio tuner -1 at 0x1fe cx88[0]: hauppauge eeprom: model=90002, tuner=76 cx88[0]: registered IR remote control cx88[0]/0: found at 0000:05:06.0, rev: 5, irq: 225, latency: 32, mmio: 0xda000000 cx88[0]/0: registered device video0 [v4l2] cx88[0]/0: registered device vbi0 cx2388x blackbird driver version 0.0.5 loaded cx2388x dvb driver version 0.0.5 loaded ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:05:06.2[A] -> Link [APC1] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 225 cx88[0]/2: found at 0000:05:06.2, rev: 5, irq: 225, latency: 32, mmio: 0xdb000000 cx88[0]/2: cx2388x based dvb card DVB: registering new adapter (cx88[0]). DVB: registering frontend 0 (Conexant CX22702 DVB-T)... But if I look into my /dev directory, I will find only these device files: dvb0.demux0 dvb0.dvr0 dvb0.frontend0 dvb0.net0 Also it seems that /dev/v4l/video0 (resp. /dev/video0) is connected with a video device. At first I thought it can be a problem with udev, so I added a dvb rule and changed the dvb startup script of gentoo: /etc/udev/dvb.rules: -------------------- KERNEL="dvb*", PROGRAM="/etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh %k", NAME="%c" /etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh: ------------------------- #!/bin/sh -e /bin/echo $1 | /bin/sed -e 's,dvb\([0-9]\)\.\([^0-9]*\)\([0-9]\),dvb/adapter\1/\2\3,' exit 0 But the device files have still the wrong names. Neither Xine nor mplayer nor TVTime can access the video card. If I press some key on the remote controll of the tv card, it will write something on to the screen, so it seems that some parts of the device driver are working. If I call the channel scanner of TV-Time, if got the following message (translated from German): "No Tuner found at signal source 0. Please use another signal source using --input==<number>." So I start the program with "tvtime-scanner --input=4", because the kernel messages said, that the tv card uses the tuner 4. If i do this, I will get this message: videoinput: Card refuses to set its input. Please post a bug report to http://tvtime.net/ indicating your card, driver, and this error message: Invalid argument. I've tested the device on a windows computer and it worked, but I don't wan't to use windows :-). So can you help me, please? cu FG
