Hi,
I have the impression that the DVBT-USB stick mentioned in the subject line
is not supported by F14. After plugging in, I got an error msg: missing
firmware file in /lib/firmware:
======================================================================
Aug 17 16:13:56 localhost kernel: dvb-usb: found a 'AverMedia AVerTV Volar
Black HD (A850)' in cold state, will try to load a firmware
Aug 17 16:13:56 localhost kernel: dvb-usb: did not find the firmware file.
(dvb-usb-af9015.fw) Please see linux/Documentation/dvb/ for more details on
firmware-problems.
======================================================================
So I copied dvb-usb-af9015.fw from some UBUNTU installation to
/lib/firmware, and I could watch digital TV with kaffeine.
So my question: would it be possible to support that stick in >= F15
versions?
Nice query. I have a AVerTV Hybrid Volar HX(A827) and it's the same
situation. I use right now the driver/firmware from here:
http://www.avermedia.com/avertv/Support/Download.aspx?Action=search&K...
Works nicely on my F-13, even with latest kernel from updates-testing.
