your dmesg doesn't report any frontend, that's why you can't access frontend0

hi

You have to create the /dev/dvbX/... entries... There is a script in the "DVB" package at linuxtv.org
i have used makedev to create the /dev/dvb/adapter..
this is the result
[EMAIL PROTECTED] driver]# sh makedev.napi
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter0
chown: `root.video': invalid group
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter1
chown: `root.video': invalid group
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter2
chown: `root.video': invalid group
Creating DVB devices in /dev/dvb/adapter3
chown: `root.video': invalid group
now i have /dev/dvb/adapter0/... modules, but using
applications to test them result in
[EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# ./set22k on
set22k: using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0'
open: No such device
[EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# ./sendburst a

[EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# ./test_dvr video 0x2000
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' and
'/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0'
writing to 'video'
cannot open dvr device: No such device
[EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# ./diseqc
diseqc test: using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0'
open: No such device
i tried to cat all these devices and the result is as
shown
[EMAIL PROTECTED] test]# cd /dev/dvb/adapter0/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]# ls audio0 ca0 demux0 dvr0 frontend0 net0 osd0 video0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]# cat audio0 cat: audio0: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]# cat ca0 cat: ca0: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]# cat demux0 cat: demux0: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]# cat dvr0 cat: dvr0: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]# cat osd0 cat: osd0: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]# cat video0 cat: video0: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED] adapter0]#
i also check adapter1, adapter2, adapter3 but all of
them give the same result
The driver works perfectly ... I personally use the 2 different Twinhan cards
i will not stop until get this bad card working under
linux,
part of /dmesg

Hi

after insmod the following modules successfully
modprobe dvb_core dvb_shutdown_timeout=0
modprobe video-buf
modprobe bttv i2c_hw=1 card=0x68
modprobe bt878
modprobe dst dst_type_flags=4
modprobe dvb-bt8xx
i tried the test_dvr, szap,..., but all not works

it is looking for /dev/dvb/video0, /dev/dvb/demx0, /dev/dvb/frontend0,... but all of them are not
exist
        You have to create the /dev/dvbX/... entries...
There is a script in the "DVB" package at
linuxtv.org
i have only /dev/video0, /dev/video1, /dev/video2,
/dev/video3, /dev/video1394
but when i tried i.e "cat /dev/video0" it gives
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dev]# cat video0
cat: video0: No such device
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dev]#
As i said earlier /dev/videoX would not work..

i dont think that the driver is working!!!

The driver works perfectly ... I personally use the 2 different Twinhan cards ...

i have also. /dev/video/ which contains

em8300 em8300_ma em8300_mv em8300_sp

It looks like you have the DXR card and or the kernel/module support... That's all not the DVB card ...
but cat them result
[EMAIL PROTECTED] video]# cat em8300
cat: em8300: No such device
[EMAIL PROTECTED] video]# cat em8300_ma
cat: em8300_ma: No such device
[EMAIL PROTECTED] video]#
        You do not have the DVR hardware ... Only the
kernel/module support ...
i also tried to open some source files like "test_dvr.c" and point it to /dev/video0, but

gives

"No such device".

Indeed you do not have any /dev/videoXXX

please, if help me as you can.

I think this is all the info that's available. and that should get you going also, if what you have said till now is correct ...
Regards,
Manu
