Hi, after searching a lot and trying a lot, Im stooped at this point, I cannot get working together over Ubuntu 8.04 or other distribution the HVR4000 card and a normal webcam with gspca drivers. If someone get it working together please help us. Next you can find what I did, only to get HVR4000 working (thanks Ian), but the gspca drivers give now some symbol errors. I read al lot of times that is a well known problem and that make kernel-links in the v4l-dvb tree and recompile a new kernel should work. But not for me, maybe Im doing something wrong. I followed the steps on the next link that work for them with another card. http://gkiagia.freehostia.com/2008/02/09/installing-avermedia-m115-drivers-on-ubuntudebian/ What I did and dont work: install fresh ubuntu 8.04 sudo apt-get install mercurial patch wget ftp://167.206.143.11/outgoing/Oxford/88x_2_119_25023_WHQL.zip unzip -jo 88x_2_119_25023_WHQL.zip Driver88/hcw88bda.sys dd if=hcw88bda.sys of=/lib/firmware/dvb-fe-cx24116.fw skip=81768 bs=1 count=32522 sudo rm -r /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/ubuntu/media/cx88 hg clone -r 127f67dea087 http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb wget http://dev.kewl.org/hauppauge/mfe-7285.diff patch -d v4l-dvb -p1 < mfe-7285.diff cd v4l-dvb sudo make sudo make install mkdir /dev/dvb/adapter1 ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0 ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/net1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/net0 ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/dvr0 ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/demux0 reboot at this point the tv card works very well but I get the symbol errors on dmesg regarding gspca. So now I tried: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-source-2.6 libncurses5-dev kernel-package mercurial Now, let's prepare the kernel. $ cd /usr/src $ sudo tar xvjf linux-source*.tar.bz2 $ cd linux-source-<press tab to autocomplete the version> $ sudo cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config $ cd v4l-dvb $ SRCDIR=/usr/src/linux-source-<version> sudo make kernel-links Now the kernel is patched. We now have to configure it if it is necessary. $ cd /usr/src/linux-source-<version> $ sudo make menuconfig This will open the menuconfig ncurses dialog and will let you configure the kernel. Normally, you don't need to touch anything except the video4linux configuration. Go to "Device Drivers" -> "Multimedia Devices" and select any drivers you need. To select a driver, highlight it and press M. I select everything there. (I also tried diferent combinations) $ sudo make-kpkg clean $ sudo make-kpkg --initrd --append_to_version .mykernel kernel_image kernel_headers When you have finished compiling, you can install the new kernel. $ cd .. $ sudo dpkg -i linux-*.deb reboot after restart ubuntu doesnt recognise my tv card I built the last gspca stable drivers cd /usr/src/gspcav1-20071224 ./gspca_build and now the webcam works but if try to make again the v4l-dvb drivers above I loose again the webcam. :-( thanks for your help, Daniel _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
