Re: [PATCH 0/3] support for Logilink VG0022a DVB-T2 stick

Hello All,

I'm responding to this thread because I have a Terretec CINERGY TC2 Stick, similar
chips, it9303/si2147/si2168, which shows the same problem.
Connecting a scope to the physical i2c bus between 2147 and 2168 gave some
suprising results.
With probe connected to the sda line, the i2c communication starts working reliable,
after disconnecting it failed again. Going further into it indicates that the
communication works up to the point where the loaded si2168 firmware starts executing,
guess this is after sending the \x01\x01 as already found by Andreas.
So probably the firmware configures something in the si2168 that makes
i2c bus weak? firmware issue? Even more I could imagine that some of these USB sticks
do work and others not.

I managed to fix the i2c bus by physically changing the pull-up on the sda line from 4k7
to 10k. So I have a working stick to test what patches are needed.

No changes to current si2157.c and si2148.c sources are necessary in this configuration.

The only reqired changes are in af9035.c:
1st Add the Terratec to the IT903x device table.
2nd Put the it930x initialization stuff, baud rate, port etc. from it930x_tuner_attach
 also into it930x_frontend_attach. Actually it seems sufficient to have it only in
 frontend_attach.

With this I see the following and the device works fine with tvheadend:
