Re: leadtek dtv dongle

How do I tell the usb-id? Tried to do a lsusb -v but the command is 
unrecognised.

Note that the Leadtek device is not actually recognised by the kernel (shown 
via dmesg).

The following is from a previous conversation on this mailing list and might 
give you the info you need:

Hi,

How do I get a patch incorporated into the dvb kernel section ?

After recently purchasing a LeadTek WinFast DTV Dongle I rapidly
discovered it was the variant that was not recognized in the kernel

i.e. as previously reported at:
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2007-December/022373.html
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-January/023175.html

its device ids are: (lsusb)
ID 0413:6f01 Leadtek Research, Inc.

Rather than make the changes suggested by previous posters I set about
making a script and associated kernel patches to automatically do this.
My motivation was simple: I use a laptop with an ATI graphics card and
fedora 8. I find the best drivers for this card are currently from Livna
and are updated monthly (and changes are significant at the moment i.e.
see the phoronix forum). So I would need to do this repeatedly.

In my patch I add an identifier (USB_PID_WINFAST_DTV_DONGLE_STK7700P_B)
and modify the table appropriately

When I plug it in I now see in my messages log
kernel: usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9

My kernel patch ( other scripts to patch the Fedora 8 src rpm's
available on request)
