Surely somebody must be able to point me in the right direction getting this to work. It can't be that difficult, it all worked fine and now it is not assigning a frontend to the card. Someone must have seen this before. Please, I've been without a working DVB box for nearly three weeks now... Cheers. -----Original Message----- From: linux-dvb-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:linux-dvb-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bryant, Dominic (UK) Sent: 07 February 2007 13:20 To: linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Lost frontend *** WARNING *** This mail has originated outside your organization, either from an external partner or the Global Internet. Keep this in mind if you answer this message. Hello, this is my first post to this (or any) mailing list, so sorry if this is the wrong place for this or anything like that... About a week ago I got a Kworld DVB-T 300U box. I plugged it into my Ubuntu 6.10 system and dmesg said that it couldn't find the firmware. I downloaded the firmware, put it in the correct place (/lib/firmware I think), plugged in the DVB box, ran Kaffeine, scanned for the channels and everything worked fine. It carried on working for the next couple of days during which time I tried to install MythTV (which couldn't find any channels). The day after that I go to watch the TV using Kaffeine and it doesn't work any more. Dmesg now gives the following: [17289667.668000] usb 5-6: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 11 [17289667.800000] usb 5-6: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [17289667.800000] dvb-usb: found a 'KWorld Xpert DVB-T USB2.0' in cold state, will try to load a firmware [17289667.844000] dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-adstech-usb2-02.fw' [17289667.932000] usb 5-6: USB disconnect, address 11 [17289667.932000] dvb-usb: generic DVB-USB module successfully deinitialized and disconnected.

[17289669.816000] dvb-usb: KWorld/ADSTech Instant DVB-T USB2.0 successfully initialized and connected. For some reason it is no longer attaching a frontand to the device. I've searched everywhere, read the past 5 or 6 months of mailing list archives and asked on the Ubuntu forum but not got anywhere. Last night I even did a manual install of the v4l drivers even though I shouldn't need to with my kernel (I thought it might help) but no change. Why would it suddenly stop working? Please help as it was great when it did work. ******************************************************************** This email and any attachments are confidential to the intended recipient and may also be privileged.
