Hello Andrew, I have same DVB-S2 card on a Debian Squeeze system, I have installed this way: mkdir /usr/local/src/dvb cd /usr/local/src/dvb wget http://tevii.com/100315_Beta_linux_tevii_ds3000.rar unrar x 100315_Beta_linux_tevii_ds3000.rar cp dvb-fe-ds3000.fw /lib/firmware/ tar xjvf linux-tevii-ds3000.tar.bz2 cd linux-tevii-ds3000 make && make install It works for me, sometimes I have those message on /var/log/messages: May 4 13:43:14 htpc kernel: [11575.306168] ds3000_firmware_ondemand: Waiting for firmware upload (dvb-fe-ds3000.fw)... May 4 13:43:14 htpc kernel: [11575.306181] cx23885 0000:05:00.0: firmware: requesting dvb-fe-ds3000.fw May 4 13:43:14 htpc kernel: [11575.358334] ds3000_firmware_ondemand: Waiting for firmware upload(2)... But it works well, I use it with MythTV, SD and HD channels. Let me know if you need some test. Kind regards. -- Josu Lazkano -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
