| Post subject: | problem with a freecom dvb usb stick |
Hi I'm building a box for a collegue with r5d1 on, and have hit a problem with a freecom dvb usb stick. the card is a rev 3 card with a pci id of 14aa:0225. I have sucessfully compiled and installed the latest v4l software. The stick is picked up by usb when I plug it in, and I get a "configuratio#1 chosen from 1 choice" message, but no messages following that from dvb-usb. I've checked against the v4l site and teh relevant drivers all seem to be loaded, and the card is supported now by v4l. I have a production myth box myself with 2 freecom cards and they were both picked up by hotplug straight away. My feeling is that the problem lies with the dvb/usb stuff. has anybody else come across this at all? thanks gaz |

| Post subject: | Same problem with R5E50 |
I am working on the same problem after purchasing the same USB device last week. I upgraded to R5E50 but it made no difference. As far as I can see, the problem is caused by R5E50 having been built with a kernel version that has an old version of the dtt200u.ko driver module from the dvb-kernel sources. The new version correctly detects the new USB ID's and attempts to load the correct firmware (dvd_usb_wt200u_fc03.fw) I have grabbed the latest version of the dtt200u driver and I am in the process of trying to compile it. Once successful, I will post it somewhere handy. Incidently, if you want to check out your freecom stick, The Knoppix 5.1 live CD distro picks it up no problem. |

Hi R5E50 picks up sticks with firmware rev 02, and the zl353 firmware straight out of the box. I've now got R5E50 working with a stick with the rev 03 firmware as well. Grab the kernel source and reset the symlinks in usr/src and /lib/modules and it'll compile no problem. In fact the box has got 3 sticks all different revisions in and working great now. Oddly the box would only pick up 1 card initially, but is now, without intervention picking up all 3 sticks correctly. |
