Hi,
I recently got an TBS 8920 DVB-S2 card and I'm now trying to get it work using Ubuntu 8.04.
Since the card wasn't automatcially detected and the list appearing when loading the cx88xx driver doesn't contain the card I downloaded the drivers from here: http://www.tbsdtv.com/english/product/PCIDVBS2.html
I compiled and installed the drivers as descripted, and after a reboot the card was propely detected.
My satelitte configuration is as follows: I've got a monoblock LNB, with Hotbird13 on "A" and Astra19 on "B"
doing a "scan /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-s/Hotbird" reports me a lot of channels. But the diseq signal is being ignored, when doing "scan -s 1 Hotbird" I get the same channels and doing "scan -s 1 Astra" gives me no channels (scan is aborted after a view seconds, saying it cannot do initial tuning)
dmesg tells someting about sending 18V and 13V, but this seems to be informative messages only.
Did someone here succeed in getting this card to work? Or is there another card which is "equal" to this card. I don't now unfortunately what TBS changed in there linux driver, this doesn't seem to be documented. The cx88-cards.h entry for my card is as follows:
[CX88_BOARD_TBS8920] = {
.name = "TBS DVB-S/S2",
.tuner_type = TUNER_ABSENT,
.radio_type = UNSET,
.tuner_addr = ADDR_UNSET,
.radio_addr = ADDR_UNSET,
.input = {{
.type = CX88_VMUX_DVB,
.vmux = 0,
},{
.type = CX88_VMUX_COMPOSITE1,
.vmux = 1,
}},
.mpeg = CX88_MPEG_DVB,
},
Any help would be appreciated,
best regards
Johannes
