Post subject:  tbs6981

G'day,

Trying to install this and need to build the modules to make it work.
Seems there is a problem building v4l on 2.6.28 :?

Any suggestions?

The tbs6981 is a twin dvb-s2 pcie card. Needed due to BBC HD going S2 <grr>

[Edit 1]
OK, my recommendation on this card would not to purchase this card for use with LinHes.
Some of the code is not open source and the card is not included in the kernel, this means you have to recompile and I have not got the card working yet, I have nearly given up on it, I am not sure if I can send it back or not.
My next option if to make a standalone mythbackend on another machine and see it I can get it to work that way, at least I would be able to prove that the card is viable.

[edit 23-mar-2012]
Still working on this now that 7.2 is available with a newer kernel, but it still does not work, has anybody got this card to work in linhes.
If I make the tbs supplied package I break all the other v4l cards in my linhes.
