Hi All, I'm experiencing problems getting a hauppauge Nova T 500 to work on my system, based on the thread http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx/msg26676.html it sounds like my card has an erased eeprom, how can I check this? Is there a line from lsusb that shows this? I've tried doing what was suggested in the thread to force the driver to recognise the device as a Nova T 500 however this hasn't worked. For reference I edited the following: linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dvb-usb-ids.h - added the following lines: #define USB_PID_HAUPPAUGE_NOVA_T_500_4 0x10b8 #define USB_PID_HAUPPAUGE_NOVA_T_500_5 0x0066 /linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dib0700_devices.c - added the following lines: { USB_DEVICE(USB_VID_HAUPPAUGE, USB_PID_HAUPPAUGE_NOVA_T_500_4) }, { USB_DEVICE(USB_VID_HAUPPAUGE, USB_PID_HAUPPAUGE_NOVA_T_500_5) }, and then ran a make, make install and shutdown the computer and restarted it however it is still not being recognised. The system I am running it on is a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.10, some details as follows: Details from the card: uname -a Linux tv 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 21:57:00 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux lsusb Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0609:0322 SMK Manufacturing, Inc. eHome Infrared Receiver Bus 002 Device 002: ID 045e:008a Microsoft Corp.
