The dvb wiki page about dvb-t usb devices is
a bit unclear about support for the Leadtek Winfast DTV dongle. The dib0700
section header states that Linux will support dib0700 devices "very soon"
whearas the entry for the Leadtek DTV dongle states that there are two versions
of the dongle (dib3000 and dib0700) but that both are supportED under
Linux.
I have tried both Suse 10.3 (kernel 2.6.22) and
Fedora 8 (kernel 2.6.23) and neither pick up the device (no dvb-usb message)
although a usb message is issued to show the device is connected. This seems to
suggest that the "very soon" comment in the wiki is correct. By the way, the
device works fine on the exact same machine under Windows, so there are no
hardware issues as such.
Can anyone give me any idea when support might be
complete for this device? Or if support is there in the kernel, why I might be
having trouble getting the device to be recognised?
P.S. I have a Nebula Digitv usb tuner also
connected and it is detected and usable under all current Linux
distros.
Many thanks,
Phil T.
