Knoppix 5.3.1 Cinergy T USB XS DVB-T

[mutsch]

I have tried Terratec Cinergy T USB XS DVB-T without success.

lsusb:
0ccd:0043 TerraTec Electronic GmbH

modprobe dvb-core
modprobe em28xx

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience.

I don't have one of these, but there is some information about there on the use of this device with Debian/Ubuntu.
Keep in mind you will need to open a root console window or type "sudo su" to become root before using apt-get or modprobe.

Thanks for the links.
I would like to use the DVB-T stick with the Knoppix DVD. Is there no way to make it working without recompiling?

If knoppix contains the required kernel modules, then you will not need to recompile anything but you may need to manually load the drivers.

Terratec Cinergy T USB XS DVB-T 0ccd:0043 is not supported by this kernel version.
I have downloaded the latest code but I have got this error message.

Maybe you can get an older version of the drivers that will work with Linux Kernel versio 2.6.24

Knoppix has a VERY recent version of the Linux kernel, so you should be able to use a slightly older version of the drivers, maybe from Dec2007 through Feb2008

Thanks for the info.
I have tried to use an older version (7 months ago - Avermedia M115 added support for DVB-T (received from sustmidown at centrum cz)).

hg clone http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/v4l-dvb-kernel/rev/4baa775da967

But it seems that I get always the latest version.

I have read in mcentral forum that this is a know problem and thy are working on it. I will try again in a week and in case also the v4l-dvb-experimental code.

[mutsch]

It's solved!

The new version of http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/v4l-dvb-kernel works with Cinergy T USB XS DVB-T on Knoppix 5.3.1.

Congratulations.

Persistence is rewarded :-)
