Hello,

I have a cinergy 1200 DVB-C card which is not supprted by the current driver from the mercurial repository. lspci -vnn shows the following:

Subsystem: TERRATEC Electronic GmbH Unknown device [153b:a156]

The device with the device string 153b:1156 is supported, so I hacked around in budget.c/budget-av.c and added a156 instead of 1156, and now the device is found:

saa7146: register extension 'budget_av'.
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:05:07.0[A] -> Link [APC2] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem f887e000 (revision 1, irq 17) (0x153b,0xa156). saa7146 (0): dma buffer size 192512
DVB: registering new adapter (Terratec Cinergy 1200 DVB-C)

The problem is that there is no frontend working. I do not know how to get this working any further. Maybe you can fix this?

Kind regards,
Jan

The id 153b:a156 looks suspicious.

Are you sure that the device is properly seated in the pci slot? If possible, you should also try a different slot.

If this does not help, the subsystem id has very likely been overwritten. You might re-program the correct id 153b:1156 with the tool fix_eeprom:

I tried a different slot but it did not help.

Yeah, fix_eeprom did the trick! Now the card is recognized, thanks a lot!

Kind regards,
