Hi guys ! I am new to the list. I own a KNC1 TV Station DVB-S2 and I tried to follow this tutorial to make it work on my Linux :
http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/KNC1_DVB-S2_TV_Station I know it is quite new since Manu Abraham tested it only 10 days ago but I would like to make it work at least for DVB-S mode. I used the version 7208 of Manu repository (http://jusst.de/hg/multiproto/rev/ecb96c96a69e) since more recent versions complains stops after a invalid ioctl, and because I guess it is the version tested on the 05th of March by Manu. To be perfectly complete, I DO NOT use a Debian Lenny, but a Ubuntu Gutsy (ie. kernel 2.6.22-14-generic) Here is what I get when I use scan : # ./scan -v dvb-s/Hotbird-13.0E scanning dvb-s/Hotbird-13.0E using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 12539000 H 27500000 27500000 Entering tune_to_transponder Retrieved fmin=950000, fmax=2150000, inv=0 ----------------------------------> Using 'STB0899 Multistandard' DVB-S Tune to frequency 12539000 (12.539000 GHz) LNB information : low_val = 9750000, high val = 10600000, switch val = 11700000 DiSEqC: fd=3 | switch pos 0, 18V, hiband (index 3) diseqc_send_msg:56: DiSEqC: e0 10 38 f3 00 00 diseqc_send_msg:66: -> SEC_VOLTAGE_18 diseqc_send_msg:69: -> SEC_MINI_A diseqc_send_msg:72: -> SEC_TONE_ON setup_switch returned 0 DVB-S IF freq is 1939000 (1939.000000 MHz) fe_params.delivery = 0 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 >>> tuning status == 0x00 WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!!

ERROR: initial tuning failed dumping lists (0 services) Done. I would like to help issuing this problem but my knowledge of DVB-S cards is quite low at the moment (ok ok null). How do you proceed when developing driver for a new card. Did you get some kind of technical specifications from KNC1 or did you adapt a generic driver, tuning parameters in a empirical way ? If someone can provide me some clues to troubleshoot my problem or to get knowledge up, I would be happy to contribute ! Thank you guys for your nice work ! See you Steve
