Subject: [linux-dvb] Avermedia M103 TV Card

Hi,
I'm still trying to get my avermedia M103 TV card working.
I have a Philips-Freevents LX3000 PC, on which I’m running PCLInuxOS,
kernel 2.6.22.17.tex3 , this has an Avermedia m103 card installed (it’s
a mini PCI card). The chips used in the card are the same as those used
in the E506,
U5
Philips
SAA7135HL/203
CE9498 04
TSG05422
U4
Zarlink
MT352 CG
0537A WS
U2
XCEIVE
XC3018ACQ (cache)
0536ATW
K42996 2
and very similar to those used in the A16D, however following the
instructions on mcentral.de I seem unable to get TV in XAWTV, TVTime or
Kaffine.
The following site has managed to get this card working with the
experimental code
http://plone.lucidsolutions.co.nz/dvb/t/compiling-mcentral-experimental-v4l-dvb-drivers
Can you please offer some advice, a couple of things that I think may be
the problem are
o Do I need to remove the card before I install the experimental code?
until now I haven’t because its under the fan, but will if needs must.
o Do I need to disable the installed V4L modules in the kernel, and then
re-compile the kernel? This seems very scary, but someone on the gentoo
pages did it this way, so I’ll give it ago if necessary
o How do I get the xc3028 to work, there seems to be 3 different
approaches, either download the windows firmware and convert, download
the picnnicale firmware
(http://mcentral.de/firmware/firmware_pinnacle.tgz), or download the
xc3028 firmware (http://mcentral.de/firmware/firmware_v5.tgz) .
Thanks in advance for any help, this is much appreciated, & will
hopefully mean I can stop using Vista.
Regards
Rob
