[linux-dvb] Asus My Cinema U3000 Mini

[Sid Gale <sid@the-gales.com>]

I'm using the information in the V4L-DVB wiki to try to get an Asus My 
Cinema U300 mini usb dvb-t tuner working with eeebuntu (based on Ubuntu 
Intrepid) on an eeepc 900. I have these lines in kern.log:

-----------------------------------------------------

Jan  2 13:24:23 sid-eee900 kernel: [   91.353100] usbcore: registered 
new interface driver dvb_usb_dib0700
---------------------------------------------

These match the information given in the wiki for 'Successful 
initialization' except for the usb 'number' and address (1-4 and 3 for 
me, 5-7 and 8 in the wiki) and the very last line 'usbcore: registered 
new interface driver dvb_usb_dib0700'. This last line does not appear in 
the wiki entry for 'Successful initialization' but does appear in the 
two of the 'failure' entries.

When I try to scan for channels, using the dvb_apps package as described 
in the wiki, I get this:

------------------------------------
scanning /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/uk-Oxford
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
initial transponder 578000000 0 2 9 3 0 0 0
 >>> tune to: 
578000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_AUTO:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE
WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0011
WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0000
WARNING: filter timeout pid 0x0010
dumping lists (0 services)
Done.
--------------------------------------

The tuner is connected to a roof-mounted aerial and when plugged in to a 
Windows system pulls in 35 channels.

I'm very new to Linux and have no idea how to proceed, so I was hoping 
that someone here could give me some pointers. I have noticed that in 
the dmesg file there are lines saying:

-----------------------
Warning! ehci_hcd should always be loaded before uhci_hcd and ohci_hcd, 
not after
------------------------

All the lines referring to ehci_hcd do, in fact, come after the ohci_hcd 
lines so it would appear that I have the order wrong. Would this make a 
difference and, if so, how do I correct it?

I'd be very grateful for any help anyone can offer.

Regards

Sid Gale
