Re: No frontend with skystar2/pci and dvb-t stick

Thanks  Oliver,

You are right, loading the stv0299 before b2c2 solved the Skystar2 issue. Why this is not needed with a stock
kernel will probably remain a mystery.

I am still stuck with my Atopia key though. The frontend identification fails, that's why it finds no frontend.
I may have to ask for more help later.

Hello all,

I am trying to get my dvb-t stick to work, but I'm having troubles with frontends.

First I also have a Skystar-2 PCI adapter which has been working well for some time, running
kernel 2.6.17 (gentoo).

The USB stick is an Atopia AT-TV-USB3. It seems to be very close to a Dibcom reference design.

I recently built a 2.6.19-r2 kernel for it, added my stick's vid/pid and managed to load the firmware,
but in the end I had no frontend:
Dec 27 23:33:44 bouleau dvb-usb: no frontend was attached by 'Atopia AT-TV-USB3'

At that point my SS-2 was still fine:

Dec 27 23:24:28 bouleau b2c2-flexcop: initialization of 'Sky2PC/SkyStar 2 DVB-S' at the 'PCI' bus controlled by a 'FlexCopIIb' complete

So I tried this morning's mercury snapshot, which has an enhanced stk7700p_frontend_attach(), did make and make install, but now I have no frontend at all. I even tried to explicitely load
the stv0299 module, with no success:

I also tried the 20061209 snapshot with the same results.

I'm not sure if there's a real problem here, of if it's just me not using the v4l package as it should.

Some context finally: arch is x86_64, with glibc 2.4-r3 and gcc -v says:
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9)

Thanks for any idea,

Eric
