Hi all,

My install features a Technotrend Premium -c card.

How do I go about to install it?

Code:
dmesg
dvb-ttpci: could not load firmware, file not found: dv-ttpci-01.fw
dvb-ttpci: usually this should be in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware or /lib/firmware
dvb-ttpci: and can be downloaded from http://www.linuxtv.org/download/dvb/firmware/


How do I add the recomended firmware? (I have very little knowledge of Debian linux)

lcpci -vv
Shows the card.

can anyone guide me through this?
I'd like to add this firmware from linuxtv.org: dvb-ttpci-01.fw-2622

Cheers / B

Well, I know the text is telling med to get the file and where to put it!
What I dont know is how to get the file from the HTPC running R5D1, since I dont know much about linux (which I posted above).

If I was on my windows machine or if knoppmyth included a regular internet browser I probably could do it, but as far as I understand I have to to it from the shell and I dont know how to do that. Which is the reason why I'm asking....

How do I get the file using the shell?
How do I copy the file to its supposed location using shell?

I'm assuming you don't have PuTTY set up on your Windows Box.
Download PuTTY and install as per instructions.
Using PuTTY, connect using SSH, to your MythTV box as User mythtv .
After you have connected, type into the command line:
Code:
wget http://www.linuxtv.org/download/dvb/firmware/dvb-ttpci-01.fw-2622
sudo cp dvb-ttpci-01.fw-2622 /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/dvb-ttpci-01.fw-2622
(You will be asked to provide the root password so you can copy the file)
This should place the the firmware file in the appropriate directory, along with the existing ones. To check execute:
Code:
ls -l /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/dvb-ttpci*


Hope this helps.

Bruce S.
