Hi,

After a week of struggle trying to make my SS2 work under Linux, I came
to find out that the card has a non supported tuner/frontend.

After playing with the Windows driver and debugging/disassembling, I
found out that I have a "QAM ST-STV0297 with Alps Tuner". This string
came from the driver itself. The driver seems to support many tuners,
some of them not being in the Linux DVB drivers.

>From the debug symbols on the Windows drivers, the ALPS tuner is a
Freq_ALPS_TDEF4X017A (this is the actual function name).

Does anyone know if work is being done on this tuner, or is this new
information ?

I've used Technisat's drivers 4.2.8 and there seems to be enough
debug symbols to "easily" create a frontend driver for it.

I'm going to give it a try to write some C code based on the Windows
driver. Would anyone have some kind of skeleton code to write a frontend.

Thanks


Sergio
