Hi.

I've got a dvb-t card, a hauppauge nova-t 500, which is the one with
two tuners and no hardware encoder/decoder.
Well, I've read that it needs some work to make it work, but I still
haven't managed. So here's what I've done. BTW, this is a debian
stable box.

I have these firmwares:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  9180 2005-05-01 23:26 dvb-dibusb-5.0.0.11.fw
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30555 2009-02-02 13:05 dvb-fe-tda10045.fw
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24478 2009-02-02 13:06 dvb-fe-tda10046.fw
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 34306 2007-09-10 11:09 dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw

and I've put them in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware and in /lib/firmware.
If the right place is another one, I don't know.
I also have these modules:

tinglao:~# lsmod (snipped)

hwinfo knows that I have a card:

59: USB 00.0: 10a00 Hub
  [Created at usb.122]
  UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_0_0_0000_02_09_0_if0
  Unique ID: 2XnU.m9RqXITNupD
  Parent ID: t2XO.ZszXABOwfd6
  SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.4/0000:02:09.0/usb5/5-0:1.0
  SysFS BusID: 5-0:1.0
  Hardware Class: hub
  Model: "Linux 2.6.22.1-reiser uhci_hcd UHCI Host Controller"
  Hotplug: USB
  Vendor: "Linux 2.6.22.1-reiser uhci_hcd"
  Device: "UHCI Host Controller"
  Revision: "2.06"
  Serial ID: "0000:02:09.0"
  Driver: "hub"
  Driver Modules: "usbcore"
  Speed: 12 Mbps
  Module Alias: "usb:v0000p0000d0206dc09dsc00dp00ic09isc00ip00"
  Driver Info #0:
    Driver Status: usbcore is active
    Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe usbcore"
  Config Status: cfg=new, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown
  Attached to: #24 (USB Controller)


The card is pci, but I've read somewhere that it uses some kind of
pci-usb connection.
And dmesg only shows this:

saa7146: register extension 'budget_ci dvb'.
Linux video capture interface: v2.00

I've added this rule for udev:
KERNEL="dvb*", PROGRAM="/etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh %k", NAME="%c"


And the script is:
#!/bin/sh
/bin/echo $1 | /bin/sed -e 's,dvb\([0-9]\)\.\([^0-9]*\)\([0-9]\),dvb/adapter\1/\
2\3,'

This was from the kerne's documentation.

And that's all. The only thing I haven't done is installing hotplug.
but in debian, udev+hal+usbmount  and hotplug conflict, so unless I
know it will work, I won't change.
Well, many people here have this working. So what am I missing?

Thanks
Alberto
