Anything i can do to help getting it going ? (Except writing a driver)
I could not find any reference to a tool either - so i guess it just
doesnt exist :)

Anything to be activated to wakeup on S3/S5 ?  I.e. the key to wake it
up ? I'm using RC6 remote - operation as already said is without any
issues, just not wakeup.

nuvoton-cir on Intel DH67CL

2012-03-13 Thread Steffen Barszus
Hi !

I'm using above board which has a nuvoton-cir onboard (as most Intel
Media boards) - It shows itself as NTN0530. 

The remote function works without a problem (loaded RC6 MCE keytable). 

What doesn't work is wake from S3 and wake from S5. There are some
rumors that installing Windows 7 and corresponding drivers has a
positive effect (for some it seems to be enough to do it one time,
others need to redo this from time to time (power loss?). This leads me
to believe, that some hardware initialization is missing. 

I'm about to try latest linux-media tree next days, but i believe
there hasn't been any change on this driver. 

My questions: 
- any idea of what i should look at ?
- any change on the driver i could try ? 
- *IF* i go to install Win7 and drivers - anything i could to to help
  tracking down what this does in order to make the driver work out
  of the box on linux ?

As a lot of Sandy Bridge Boards to have this chip lately - it would
be nice if this could just work or is my impression, that this is a
general problem in this hardware wrong ?

i know that and i didn't mention with any word _you_ should fix that.
However it needs to be fixed.

First i did not berate anyone. Second i don't care if you think about
user experience. I said don't put your conflicts to the user. Third I
don't tell you what to do. 

I just stated the obvious. 

Let me rephrase what i tried to say initially:

No please don't start patching femon for a single card, there are other
applications using this interface, which would possibly need to go the
same route, once this get started. Then there are applications which
wont do this (which i can understand, because its wrong). Suggestion
will be to patch/fix the driver - which in the end means that the fight
will be done at the back of the end user or people who try to make life
easier for them and for example putting together specialized linux
distributions. So from my perspective it means that beside this patches:

ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/Driver-Patches/

It will start to become more patches for the different cards, which i
get asked for to include it in my dkms package, or people start making
patches for vdr and other applications to do the same as suggested here,
which also end up at the same side. 

This is frustrating. Has my frustration been visible in my
mail ? Not impossible. But where else than on this list i could plead
for help in getting this fixed at the right place ? Devin i'm not asking
you to fix it, i'm writing to linux-media as i did in my initial mail.

I don't need to read the history of this and i am not even interested
in doing so. No matter what "The right solution" is, showing the
inability of acting as a team and putting the conflict to the user is
the worst solution you can achieve. Any uniform scale is better, then
whats there at the moment. 

Being ignorant in this respect is and was intended.

This is no solution - drivers should be patched to deliver result in
common format. femon is not the only application reading this values.
And every application carrying its own set of correction tables doesn't
help in any way. Shouldn't be to hard to agree on one scale and scale
whatever value to that in reporting the signal strength.

Re: [PATCH 0/5] Driver support for cards based on Digital Devices bridge (ddbridge)

2011-11-03 Thread Steffen Barszus
Hi !

>From a users point of view i would like to have some clarification on
this discussion. 

Lets take a (now real world) example. 

Having 
  /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0
  /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0
  /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0
  /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1
  /dev/dvb/adapter0/net0
  /dev/dvb/adapter1/demux0
  /dev/dvb/adapter1/dvr0
  /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0
  /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend1
  /dev/dvb/adapter1/net0

for a C/T card, where one fe is C and the other is T , connector is
only one per adapter. 

How is the logic to handle this ? 

Two big issues i don't properly understand at the moment. 

1.) VDR does not know that frontend1 is
related to demux0. since no application changes magically on its own,
can someone provide some information of what an application is expected
to do, to handle this properly. With this information it could be
discussed at i.e. vdr mailing list. 

2.) How does an application/user/whatever know what can be used ? 
I mean there is only C connected OR T - how can the application know
what fe can be used (assumed point 1. has been fixed). How would the
user know, which is which and how one should specify what is
connected ? 

3.) ca/caio device handling - is this something an application should
implement ... and how. 

Please help me to understand these points as this is something which
pops up regular in discussion with our (yavdr.org) users. 

For 1 and 2 the only proper solution i see would be 1 frontend instead
of 2 with a possibility to specifiy the transport in one way or
another. (which -> to be discussed) 

Regards 

Steffen

I tried to ping Dominik Kuhlen at least a couple of times - without a
reply. Is this a must or nice to have ? Is there a workaround or is
this driver at dead end then ? I can only confirm that the driver is
working with the mentioned changes.

After some searching it looks like this is the first occurrence of the
driver:
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2007-October/021403.html

Further it looks like Dominik Kuhlen is not responding at that mail (as
he has been on copy on one of the last mails. 

So looks like we cant get the signed-off-by from him. 

Does that mean the patch can't be applied and needs to be rewritten
from scratch even if the author put the code under GPL2 back then ? Is
there any rule for this ?

See comment of  Oliver Freyermuth - the driver seems to work (after
altering it to make it work with current kernel), also got some postive
feedback for it for kernel 2.6.38 and current 3.2 media_tree. 

Does someone have a definitive answer on how to go ahead ? What else is
missing ?

Thanks :) 

Steffen

Late follow up - but i only _now_ have 2 of these card. Situation now
is that it doesn't oops anymore - however its not fixed in the end. 

Problem which still exists: When one card is recording in vdr, the
second card possibly doesnt get a lock anymore. if second "receiver" is
live tv, switching back and forward a couple of times makes tuning
possible in the end, but it can also break recording. 

So from overall picture its seems there are ressources which are not
guarded against use at multiple devices. The fix for the oops has only
fixed the immediate crash but did not solve the common use of
ressources. 

Can you let me know how to start tracking this down ? Beside me i know
a couple of others having more than one of these cards, and - if its
the best/easiest way i could also imagine to organize temporary 2 of
this cards for a developer able to fix it.

It's about dib0700 driver also reported here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg35763.html few days ago.

Quote:
"The drivers from 2011-02-05 does not run, but the drivers from
2010-10-16 runs perfectly. "

should give at least a startingpoint/timeframe for bisecting ...
allthough would be more usefull if based linuxtv git.

Did a first test on the patch. 
[   96.780040] usb 1-8: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
[   97.376058] dvb_usb_pctv452e: Unknown symbol ttpci_eeprom_decode_mac (err 0)

Looks like this patch didn't make it into patchwork - Mauro can you
check that ?


I think the patch for ttpci-eeprom.c is missing this:

I think/hope Jarod can comment on this - i just know that new remotes
should use rc-core, as this is the "new thing" for this. I'm no

Any updates on this one, or does this really need to be discussed. Its
proven now, that here is a bug, there was enough discussion before. 

Can this PLEASE get applied. 

What proofs are needed, anything wrong with it , at least ANY comment
on it ? 

I'm starting to hate that its hidden trough v4l development causing that
DVB development is dead. This sucks ...

Is there any DVB developer on this list ?  Someone who can check and
comment or approve this patch ? 

Thanks !

Thanks Lutz for getting down to the problem :) !

Manu, Mauro,

Any comments ? Let's have that finally sorted. 

I think its proven now that its a bug. We have a fix.

A few test result on 2.6.39-rc3 from vdr-portal(thx to jrie, hope its

i read something about it lately here (german!): 
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board16-video-disk-recorder/board85-hdtv-dvb-s2/p977938-stb0899-fec-3-4-tester-gesucht/#post977938

It says in stb0899_drv.c function:
static void stb0899_set_iterations(struct stb0899_state *state) 

This:
reg = STB0899_READ_S2REG(STB0899_S2DEMOD, MAX_ITER);
STB0899_SETFIELD_VAL(MAX_ITERATIONS, reg, iter_scale);
stb0899_write_s2reg(state, STB0899_S2DEMOD, STB0899_BASE_MAX_ITER, 
STB0899_OFF0_MAX_ITER, reg);

should be replaced with this:

reg = STB0899_READ_S2REG(STB0899_S2FEC, MAX_ITER);
STB0899_SETFIELD_VAL(MAX_ITERATIONS, reg, iter_scale);
stb0899_write_s2reg(state, STB0899_S2FEC, STB0899_BASE_MAX_ITER, 
STB0899_OFF0_MAX_ITER, reg);

Basically replace STB0899_S2DEMOD with STB0899_S2FEC in this 2 lines
affected.

Kind Regards 

Steffen

It has been done some work (and effort), to prove its having positive
effect. you should allways
have more then 1000 stations at any time on that SAT, if you see that maximum
number of stations is somewhere at 1600. everything around 400 is
broken hardware or driver.

Please dont consider his post as single experience of a single user. The general
perception was more like "Wow i can finally use that card and don't
throw it away."
 from 10+ Users which i know of. So no matter if its considered done
right or not.
The tuning patch is out of question of improving the usability of the
affected cards.

The request has been, to prove that the changes at the stb6100 is not
enough to actually
fix the problem. This prove has been done now . The changes on the
stb6100 is not enough,
the changes at the stb0899 still has quite positive effect.

So taking into account that the patch improves situation and doesn't
have negative side
effects for others, it might be wise to consider inclusion of the
patch, even if it might not
be the perfect solution from technical/theoretical perspective.

I dont want to complain until the patch is in, its just: We have a
problem, we have a solution.
Lets use it and make this hardware useful for the people and lets do
it right when time permits.

There is still a handful of other patches for the same hardware
floating around to improve other parts of that driver.

I mean this hardware is known to work "less then perfect" since years, really.

So please do something about it. Accept the helping hands.

Thanks

linux-headers should be enough, no need for linux-source, and you need

You might want to try my dkms package - not sure if it works on
maverick (its build on/for lucid) - but in theory it should (except
if the number of modules differs for different kernel). 
If not you get atleast the latest source which compiles fine here.

Just uploaded new version with media_build and media_tree as of now. 

Let me know if it works.

patches missing in git ? - TT S2 1600

2011-03-06 Thread Steffen Barszus
I have one patch lying around which will fix a kernel oops if more than
one TT S2 1600 is build into the same computer. 

It still applies and compiles - does someone know if this has been
obsoleted by another patch or if that means it is still missing ? 

Thanks !

Kind Regards 

Steffen

That would be good, as far as i remember - the issue is, without these
patches the driver crashes after a while caused by vdr's excessive use
by EIT scanner. So it can only be used without EPG scan enabled. With
that it was running stable. There have been a few different patches
floating around to address this issue.

Think i did not put it into relation. 

Let me get to the users of the cards, to test the current dkms [1] w/o
any patches and confirm back to you whats current situation
It was this one: 

commit f14bfe94e459cb070a489e1786f26d54e9e7b5de
Author: Manu Abraham 
Date:   Sun Nov 14 15:52:10 2010 -0300

[media] stb6100: Improve tuner performance

right ?

Kind Regards

Steffen

[1] Test version of the dkms, need to remove above named patches
tomorrow. Will remove the above patches again for testing, then its
except for a small fix for more then on TT S2 1600 plain media_tree.

NCT 677x lirc driver for Asrock 330HT and others

2011-03-06 Thread Steffen Barszus
Hi !

Note sure where exactly to put it. Here is an lirc driver provided by
Nuovoton as it seems, which can be downloaded from the vendors site:

http://www.asrock.com/Nettop/download.asp?Model=ION%20330HT&o=Linux

It adds an lirc driver for the receiver as used in the Asrock 330HT and
newer models from Asrock. 

Can this go into lirc, or better, can something be done to integrate it
"somehow" ? 


Kind Regards

Steffen

Can you please check these patches ? 
What is missing ? Something to be corrected ? 

What happens to orphaned drivers ? Manu are you still working on this ? 

Manu , Mauro please comment ! Thanks !

Thx ! Its working now if i put 

#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 36)
#define usleep_range(_min, _max)msleep((_max) / 1000)
#endif

in compat.h - not sure how it gets there - but you might know :)

This is true :) Any commit waiting, or any commit missing ?

@Hans: one idea to improve your mail would be to show the git hash of
the media tree instead of media build (i assume this is what is in your
mails) Other than that its really useful to see in beforehand what you
can expect :) Thanks !
