Hello!

I have this card http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TeVii_S470

I try to use it under Debian Squeeze, but I can't get channel data from it.

I try to use drivers from 2.6.38, 2.6.39 kernels, s2-liplianin drivers with 2.6.32 kernel, last linux-media drivers with 2.6.32

With all drivers I can scan channels, but then a I'll try to lock channel I get some error in syslog (module cx23885 loaded with debug=1)

cx23885[0]/0: [f373ec80/27] cx23885_buf_queue - append to active cx23885[0]/0: [f373ebc0/28] wakeup reg=477 buf=477 cx23885[0]/0: queue is not empty - append to active

and finally a lot of

cx23885[0]/0: [f42c4240/6] timeout - dma=0x03c5c000 cx23885[0]/0: [f42c4180/7] timeout - dma=0x3322b000 cx23885[0]/0: [f4374440/8] timeout - dma=0x33048000 cx23885[0]/0: [f4374140/9] timeout - dma=0x03d68000

In other machine this work under Windows. Under Linux I have same effects.

It's problem in drivers or in card? That addition information need to resolve this problem?

I'll try use this drivers today, but for this devices drivers exist in kernel from 2.6.33. So it must work with in-kernel drivers.

P.S. Firmware from this archive I put in /lib/firmware before all tests.

Hello again, actually, I am using this method for Tevii S660 and S470:

apt-get install linux-headers-uname -r build-essential mkdir /usr/local/src/dvb
cd /usr/local/src/dvb
wget http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin/archive/tip.zip
unzip tip.zip
cd s2-liplianin-0b7d3cc65161
make CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV:=n
make install

Both methods works for me on a Debian Squeeze (2.6.32). Here more

As your can see in quoted text I always try to use this drivers. Result is same. I'll always read WiKi link. I know that another users use this card without problems. I have good signal quality (88% signal and 79-80% snr). But in my 2 linux systems I can't get channel data. Scan work fine(!).
