Terratec Cinergy C PCI - Mantis Driver

Terratec Cinergy C PCI - Mantis Driver

[Marius Räsener]

Hi V4L-List,

i hope i can find a solution with your help here.
The situation:
Hp ProLiant DL380 G2 Server should become a LinuxMCE Core (got that cheap).
LinuxMCE is based on Kubuntu 7.10 (i386 in my case)
I think the components of the System arent relevant, but correct my 
please if not.
Maybe that there are only PCI-X slots available, but all Cards I use are 
3.3V compatible (with the 2 notch).

DVB-C Card is "Terratec Cingery C PCI HD".

I installed the card via this method:

cd /usr/src
sudo apt-get install mercurial
sudo hg clone http://jusst.de/hg/mantis 
cd mantis
sudo make
sudo make install
sudo reboot


this worked for me several times.
(
i got the expected dmesg output:
[  101.667604] found a VP-2040 PCI DVB-C device on (0a:01.0),
[  101.670427] DVB: registering new adapter (Mantis dvb adapter)
[  102.189326] mantis_frontend_init (0): Probing for CU1216 (DVB-C)
[  102.192819] mantis_frontend_init (0): found Philips CU1216 DVB-C 
frontend (TDA10023) @ 0x0c
[  102.192823] mantis_frontend_init (0): Mantis DVB-C Philips CU1216 
frontend attach success
[  102.192829] DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (Philips TDA10023 
DVB-C)...
)
but after the last complete new-installation its not anymore.
(
now die dmesg output:
~: dmesg | grep -i dvb
~:
)
i'm not sure what to try next. the card itself installs in Vista x64 
without any errors so its no hardware defect i guess.
i also tried to install a older version of the mantis driver, but i'm 
not sure if i downloaded them correctly.
i'm also not sure if i can reinstall older or newer versions of the 
driver without messing something up. does that work?
i also tried several different pci-x slots caused that procedure 
sometimes helped me in windows environment...

any hints please for me before i jump from a bridge or something :)

greetings from sunny mannheim, germany

Please load the mantis_core.ko module before you load the mantis.ko
module.

Hi again,

i tried older version now from the driver without success.

i tried     sudo rmmod mantis.ko  ... or with mantis_core.ko
"Module mantis does not exist in /proc/modules" on both modules

i really have no idea what to do ... i also looked at the driver sources 
... but thats far to advance for me right now ... i mean there a really 
much lines of code :)

greetings
