I'm not expert with dvb cards, but I have this card, and have it working, with Fedora. Prior to the current kernel version (2.6.16-1), I had to patch the dvb drivers as laid out in the instructions here: http://www.linuxtv.org/cvs.php. However, with the current kernel, I beleive the dvb drivers have support for this card. (I didnt have to re-patch the dvb like I did in the past). You may still have to follow the instructions stated previously to do with thet dvb firmware for the usb bit (the bit with "get_dvb_firmware bluebird"). I'll copy that segment of the instructions I wrote for myself (these work in Fedora 4): 8) Change to the "/sbin/v4l-dvb/linux/Documentation/dvb" directory. 9) Make the get_dvb_firmware script executable: "chmod +x get_dvb_firmware" 10) Run the script with the command "./get_dvb_firmware bluebird" 11) Copy the resulting file to the /lib/firmware directory, using the command "cp dvb-usb-bluebird-01.fw /lib/firmware/" On 4/10/06, James Buckley <james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Sunday 09 April 2006 23:00, you wrote: > > Hi, > > can you send me a picture of your device and further info for inclusion > > to my > > http://www.bttv-gallery.de ? > > > Sure, I have a 5megapixel camera so the photos shouldn't be a problem.
