Hello Tim,
i also have a tevii s660 which i cannot get to work properly.
i'm no programmer and nobody has given a reaction on my previous posts
(debugging my tevii...).
I get this in my log after getting the source from the linuxtv site with
the driver igor wrote:

in my previous post i got a message that an mt312 chip was found and now
it does not find anything.
so now i don't have a dvb device at all.
the firmware is from the drivers from tevii. I tried and the s630
firmware and later the s660 firmware renamed to s630 but none worked.
After installing the driver/changing the firmware, I shutdown the
computer removed the power from the tevii device and then replugged and
started my computer again.

if you need help testing i would be glad to help.
The tevii drivers are working and also detect the mt312 chip.
This driver does not, but i'm not very pleased about the driver from
tevii because channel switch takes long and image quality is bad and my
system get's slow/freezes.
With kind regards

Hullo
I've been struggling with this for a couple of days. I have checked
archives, but missed anything useful.
I've got a tevii s660 (dvbs2 via usb). It works with some limitations
on windows xp (I cannot get HD signals decoded, but think that's a
limitation of the software that comes on the CD).
I'm trying to get this working on Linux. I've tried VMs based on
fedora 12 and mythbuntu (VMWare Fusion on a MacBookPro, both based on
kernel 2.6.32), using the drivers from tevii's site
(www.tevii.com/support.asp). these drivers are slightly modified
versions of the v4l tip - but don't appear to be modified where I've
not yet managed to get the drivers working :-(. Mythbuntu seems to be
closest to working. Goodness knows how tevii tested the code, but it
doesn't seem to work as far as I can see. My issues could just be
down to using a VM.
I believe that I need to load up the modules ds3000 and
dvb-usb-dw2102, + add a rule to /etc/udev/rules.d and a script to
/etc/udev/scripts.
I think that I must be missing quite a lot of context, tho'. When I
look at the code in dw2102.c, which seems to support the s660, the bit
that downloads the firmware looks broken and if I add a default clause
to the switch that does the download, the s660's missed the download
process. This could be why when I do get anything out of the device
it looks like I'm just getting repeated bytes (the same value
repeated, different values at different times, sometimes nothing).
I'm finding it non-trivial working out the call sequences of the code
or devising repeatable tests.
Can anyone kick me off on getting this working? I'd like to at least
get to the point where scandvb can tune the device. It does look like
some folk have had success in the past, but probably with totally
different codebase (there are posts that refer to the teviis660
module, which I cannot find).
Any pointer gratefully accepted. I'll feed back any success if I can
be pointed at where to drop document it.
