Hello I'm living in Caen (Normandy - France) and I recently purchased a DVB-T usb adpater Terratec Cinergy T2 I'm using linux debian (kernel 26.11) on Dell inspiron 8200 laptop Okay, let me show you what I did : 1 - when I plugged the usb cable, the Cinergy T2's blue led flashed on time (a very short flash) 2 - in a terminal, I run lsmod, so here is the result (I cutted some lines to be clear) : pastix@pastix_laptop:~$ lsmod .... cinergyT2 15492 0 dvb_core 75048 1 cinergyT2 .... cinergyT2,usbhid,usb_storage,ohci_hcd,uhci_hcd,e .... 3 - I edited a file called "fr-Caen" in /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/ where I specified the channels to use (for example : T 546000000 8MHz 1/2 NONE QAM16 8k 1/32 NONE) 4 - I run scan /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/fr-Caen in a terminal (as user or/and as root) with no succes, the terminal messages where for example >>> tune to: 546000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_1_2:FEC_NONE:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE (tuning failed) so please let me know if I'm wrong somewhere in the process or did I miss or forgot something to do to be successful :) -- Accro de libert? ?
