I have a combined analogue TV/FM radio/DVB-T USB stick Terratec Cinergy XS. This stick used to be supported by the em28xx-new driver, but it has been discontinued since a few months ago. A patch for 2.6.31 has surfaced, but I cannot find one for 2.6.32, thus it doesn't work any more. A similar model with USB ID 0ccd:005e is supported directly by recent kernels, however I have a 0ccd:0072.
View 1 Replieslong time ago that I tried to use my DVB-T Stick with Fedora. In past there was a work-out, drivers to compile and so on... That behaviour is GREATLY enhanced in F12, very nice!
The only thing that a had to do was downloading the firmware, the other stuff remains by kernel and so on automatically. I WAS impressed.
But it doesnt matters what kind of programm/tool I used, nowhere was my DVB-T stick recognized. And for result of that, Im not able to view TV... What the heck is now going on?
No errors, driver correctly loaded, but nothings works?
Here is the dmesg-message, U can see everthing looks okay:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having issues with a Terratec T3 DVB-T USB stick. It seems that ubuntu is recognizing it, but it isn't usable in Kaffeine or VLC anymore.The funny thing is that is WAS working, but after installing some codecs, upgrading to a new kernel and rebooting it stopped working, and it is no longer detected by both apps... Kaffeine says "no available device found", VLC gives a similar error.I've tried booting the machine with the old kernel, but the issue remains. I don't think installing codecs (x264 for example, tried removing it, no success) has anything to do with it, so I wonder what went wrong?
Oh and one more thing; in gnome device manager there is a question mark next to the stick. So there might be something missing on the system after all. linux-firmware-nonfree was installed and reinstalled 10 times or something, still no go, not even after a reboot.
First my system data:
- OpenSuse 11.4 x64
- KDE SC 4.6.2

I have a this new USB DVB-T Stick and the tv reception works perfect. I tried to set up the remote control as well, but i got stuck. I followed this instruction.
excerpt from lsusb:

Code:
Irrecord does not recognize anything. This input device is also mapped to /dev/input/ir but this device doesn't work neither.
I also checked the remote cotrol with a digital camera: it sends ir light on pressing a key.

1. The VDR-WIKI shows me, that the card should normally work with Mantis DVB Driver. But the openSUSE 11.3 Kernel includes it.
2. The 'yast2 tv' don't find a driver and also no mantis driver is shown (same as 'HDTV-Karte SkyStar HD 2', 'Twinhan 1041', 'AzureWave DVB-S2', 'AD-SP400',

I'm looking to dual-boot Windows 7 and Debian 6 upon its release on my sister's laptop. I want to share a partition between the two of them so that /home points to this directory and the Windows equivalent also points to it (C:Users).
Anyway, I've heard good and bad things about the NTFSMount driver (I think it's NTFS-3G now) and the NTFSprogs project and so I am not so certain what I should believe. I do know that NTFS has relatively high overhead, though I do not recall the source of this assertion, so I am considering the use of EXFAT. An open source EXFAT project is hosted on Google Code at [url] and it utilizes the kernel module FUSE.
I'm quite certain that I've got everything covered on the Windows side -- that is, I know that both NTFS and EXFAT will be suitable filesystems for my required usage.
My issue is that I'm curious which will have superior performance and stability in Debian. I planned on building the package from source and mounting the device in my FSTAB but I have also found a PPA for Ubuntu on Launchpad at [url] that I could borrow the debian/rules from and make a .deb package from.
What do you guys think? Should I go at it with the EXFAT or NTFS partitioning? Is NTFS-3G actually fairly supported at this point? Or perhaps should I consider some alternate method?
I have also considered that the only files she will be sharing are those of music, videos, and pictures so it could be better to just link /home/xxxx/Pictures (Music and Videos, too) to the new partition instead of all of /home.
Im trying to configuring TERRATEC H7 in Ubuntu kernal version 2.6.38.2. I followed the steps given in [url] .But im getting compilation errors. Also i would like to know this linux has this device support.

- 160 Mb Ram
- 2113 MB HDD (bad shape)
- Network card 10/100
- 2 USB 1.0

I wonder if I can install debian on it with a CD, who install it on a 16 GB USB-stick 2.0.
I wonder to if i can make so Debian takes like 20 MB in Ram or less? I will run it textbased.
I'd seen here that Debian must have at least 64 MB in Ram http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i ... n#id321935
But it's that true? I want a Debian who take ram like Damn Small linux.
The computer shall have ONE function. Run a tiny python script. It will read over 200 pages every 30:e second textbased. Thats what the python program will do. I must have internet connections.
I have a computer missing a HDD and I would like to be able to use it until I have bought a new HDD. I have seen it is possible to install the contents of a LiveCD to a usb stick, but is it possible to install a normal debian system to a usb stick and make it bootable? Example: can I make BIOS find my usb stick and make it the master HDD and then install debian on it by booting with an installation CD?
The advantages would be the possibility to modify the operating system and storing files, which is impossible when using a liveCD.
I just now down loaded firmware-brcm80211, I want to put it on a usb stick, so that when I am installing debian, and it asks to insert the "medium" that has the driver, I have it on a usb stick.
My question, do I just copy the package to the device(usb stick), or do I need to extract it onto the stick ?

I Installed Debian on my laptop using a USB-stick. After the installation, everything seemed ok, though it didn't boot anything, it was just waiting with a flashing marker. I put in the USB-stick and rebooted the system and it worked for some reason, GRUB started this time. Now i've had the system like this for a couple of weeks, I have to put in my USB-stick in order to be able to get GRUB to start, but can remove the USB-stick when the OS has started.
The only thing I could think of, was that GRUB was installed into the USB-stick. So I removed the USB-stick when Debian was started and and reinstalled GRUB using aptitude. Still didn't work. What could be wrong?
When I plug in my USB stick (with fat32 filesystem, labeled flash8p1) and then try to mount it from the Places menu, I get an error box that pops up: Unable to mount flash8p1 Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so

I just got my Gnome-flavored Squeeze running this morning, and I'm still working out the configuration. I have disabled automounting and autobrowsing of removable media, but anyway this problem was occuring when I had automounting enabled. I have the OS installed to a 4-GB microSDHC card plugged in to the front of the computer. The computer is a Toshiba Mini NB505.
edit: And now, I just plugged the flash8p1 into a different USB port, and it mounted from the places menu. I wonder, though, if this is related to the fact that I had first mounted it from the command line.
I tried to build a bootable USB stick using Code: Select alldd if=~/Desktop/linux/debian-8.0.0-i386-xfce-CD-1.img of=/dev/disk1 bs=1m as mentioned here: URL... but this does not work on my MacBook 3.1, late 2007 model (yes, I am using rEFIt and my CD drive is dead). The error message upon trying to boot from the USB stick using rEFIt says something like 'unable to load bootia32.efi'.
The workaround: I took the "bootX64.efi" from here:URL... on the USB drive and renamed it as "boot.efi".I copied the "debian-8.0.0-i386-xfce-CD-1.iso" to "/efi/boot" on the USB drive and renamed it as "boot.iso".So now my USB stick has 2 files only: "/efi/boot/boot.efi" and "/efi/boot/boot.iso" and nothing else.Now I was able to boot from the USB stick get into a GRUB prompt.
Code: Select allloopback loop (hd0,1)/efi/boot/boot.iso
grubconfig (loop)/boot/grub/grub.cfg
The installer starts fine and I choose my locale, keyboard etc. until it starts to scan for the CD drive and I face...The error message says that a CD was not found (as expected).I fired up the shell offered by the installer and mounted the USB stick to "/mnt/usb" like this:
Code: Select allmount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/usb
It works and I can see my ISO file in "/mnt/usb/efi/boot/boot.iso".I tried to mount the ISO image to "/dev/cdrom":
Code: Select allmount -o loop -t iso9660 /mnt/usb/efi/boot/boot.iso /dev/cdrom
waited for a while and killed (control + c) the process and found that my "/dev" folder has been flooded with files named like the string "loop" followed by some digits (loop1245, loop8766 etc.).Can the Debian installer be somehow tricked into believing that the ISO file on the USB stick is the mounted CD?
I cannot get an install past looking for CD on any of the iso's I've tried. I have burned many iso's of other distributions onto a USB Stick and installed them so easily. Yet when it comes to Debian it is always a no go with me.
I think that Debian being up with the times would or should know most people that burn iso's just use an USB Stick it is easier and convenient. Therefore, they'd write the scripts to use them too without the "iso" thinking it is an CD/DVD that it is needing CD / DVD drivers to finish an install else abort.

The DVD however offers only an "install" over an existing Linux-system, destroying that. Really hours and hours of Google aso. brought no solution to a - in my opinion - simple task.
I want to transfer the content of the DVD onto the USB-stick, make that stick bootable and THEN enable me to act like the system on the stick were my real OS, including of course making changes to the configurations.
