cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

The Twinhand DVBT CARD under Gentoo works Perfectly but under arch *lol* no way.
No Help here in Forum no Help in Irc no Help on Wiki (more then disappointing)

I follow the tutorial form gentoo http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php? … visionplus

Arch detects my DVB-T Card

bttv: driver version 0.9.16 loaded

Re: cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

Ok so what is the problem?  What doesn't work?  I don't have a huge amount of experience specific to Arch but I do with Linux and Arch is pretty good at maintaining a standard layout. 

After reboot, try unloading the module and reloading it -- that will tell you a couple of things like whether it is module related or something more.

Re: cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

I have no idea of dvbt configs anyway, inspite I run it with kaffeine.

Kaffeeine macht das - versuche es mal. Ich kann auch  keine Handkonfiguration von dvbt. Gentoo ist sehr viel besser dokumentiert, im Vergleich zu Gentoo ist das hier aber auch eine Kleinveranstaltung .

Leider macht Kaffeine gar nichts es meint nur "cant bind socket" klar wenn nicht mal ein /dev/dvb da ist, weder /dev/video.

Kleinveranstalltung aber es gefehlt mir besser als gentoo.

Ich frag mich nur wo die ganzen Linux Pros sind, es muss doch nur ein erklärt werden ich wuerde sogar ein how-to schreiben.

Re: cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

Just find out what modules are loaded in Gentoo and then try to tweak your rc.conf modules area ;-)

Re: cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

If it can't bind the socket to /dev/dvb devices then you need to make the devices.  The Gentoo howto has a section (I believe) on how to make the devices and patch udev to make them on reboot. 

To check if that is your problem, then do an ls on /dev/dvb* to see if they exist.

Re: cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

No need to do that. Here udev creates the /dev/dvb (satellite) fine.

why rc.conf?
Its modprobe.conf not the right place?

Thank you.

Re: cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

My dvb card is automaticly detected by hwdetect and modules are loaded quiet correctly. Also udev creates the /dev/dvb properly.

Just find out the proper modules for your card and then we can tweak your /etc/rc.conf! You can blacklist any module that shouldn't be loaded automaticly and you can manually load modules there if hwdetect won't do it.

Entries in /etc/modprobe.preload maybe overwritten by hwdetect but I'm not sure. User tpowa will know it exactly. He has written hwdetect ;-)

Re: cant run my dvbt. (SOLVED)

Deja Vu or what ?

i read the OP's initial post and i just got that creepy feeling i'd read similar elsewhere in the forums. after a great search i found it.

Moo - it was your recent "20 ways" submission :twisted:
