I'm having a lot of trouble getting my DViCo Fusion DVB-T Plus loaded
properly. It appears to be the 1.1 revision (the chip ends with a -39
rather than a -19, which I believe is the indicator). The card is
detected; lspci gives correct information about the card, and
/dev/v4l/video0 and vbi0 exist. The problem is that /dev/dvb/ is not
getting created.
I believe your problem is simply due to the fact that cx88-dvb isn't
loading automatically... try:
modprobe cx88-dvb
...then what happens?
While I'm not a linux newbie, I am very green when it comes to
manually configuring hardware drivers and the like. I've tried to
follow Chris Pascoe's instructions here (
http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~chrisp/Linux-DVB/DVICO/
<http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/%7Echrisp/Linux-DVB/DVICO/> ), but to be
honest I'm a bit overwhelmed.
[snip .config]
After building my kernel, I extracted this tar (
http://linuxtv.org/hg/~pascoe/v4l-dvb?ca=cec41e698b97;type=bz2
<http://linuxtv.org/hg/%7Epascoe/v4l-dvb?ca=cec41e698b97;type=bz2> ) from
Pascoe's site and, as advised, followed the instructions on this page
( http://www.linuxtv.org/repo/#build ). The make section seems to
work correctly, but I get several errors during the make install
section. The last one is:
install: cannot stat 'dvb-firesat.ko' : No such file or directory
make: [dvb-install] Error 1 (ignored)
/sbin/depmod -a 2.6.16-gentoo-r9
^^^ This indicates that you are using an extremely old repository.
Instead, try building from the latest mercurial snapshot, as described
in the linuxtv.org link above.
