Re: Terratec CinergyT2 doesn't work with UBUNTU 6.10

Hello, if this could help,
I own a Terratec CinergyT2 DVB-T device and works fine since 2.6.17.13 kernel for me.
On a slackware base, recompiled from kernel.org sources.
Cheers,
Thierry

Hello, Hermann,


The automatic load of the cx88-dvb module can be achieved via the /etc/modules - file in Ubuntu. I simply added the name of the module in a line in this file -- and now everything works.

Does the cinergy T² work with this module too?? I was not able to make it work under Ub 6.10

Sorry, since you posted a copy to me directly, I know nothing about the
cinergyT2 and don't have any usb dvb device, also no Ubuntu.

The cx88-dvb module is only to support DVB on Conexant cx2388x PCI
bridges. The chips else work for analog video/vbi/radio under
video4linux.

If I try to find your previous mails, I can see you had it working under
FC6 and a green LED was on, which now never happens.
FC6 likely uses a 2.6.19x kernel, which is in truth a 2.6.20-rcx and
this could make some difference, but there is not a single other error
report for this device on 2.6.17, which is quite old by the way and we
should have more such reports then.

Guess either you have messed something up or even the hardware has
troubles. Can you test if it still works on FC6 or whatsoever?

Usually the install of mercurial v4l-dvb is very safe and takes care for
all, but if anything is messed up delete the whole modules in
/lib/modules/2.6.17-Ubuntu-something/kernel/drivers/media (the whole media folder)

Run "make distclean" on the v4l-dvb mercurial and then "make" and "make
install" again.
After deleting the media folder you could also force the install of the
Ubuntu kernel again to be sure you have all back originally from that
kernel.

There is a lot of back porting, adding compat stuff, make it sysfs ready
and issues with the input layer for the remote visible.

Maybe 2.6.17 is currently not fully compatible for that device with v4l-
dvb mercurial, you seem to have input device register errors on X.

Either stay with your default Ubuntu kernel then, or try latest
mercurial on the recent 2.6.20 kernel from kernel.org.
If FC6 still works it is something in that direction.

For your "scan" question
./scan -n -o zap -p dvb-t/be-Your_Transmitter > channels.conf
Some like this directly in dvb-apps/util/scan or with corrects paths
on your PC should do it.
Put the resulting channels.conf in ~/.tzap .xine ...

Hm, there seems to be only be-Tournay with one single transponder.

Full compat to distro kernels is not the main goal of a development
repository, if at all ..., but this additional service is quite fine
today, but not always guaranteed to work immediately.

Only a shot in the dark.
Good Luck,
Hermann
