DTT USB AF9035 and kernel 3.0.x -> patch
ambrosa 19 Oct 2011
Here there are the patch for AF9035 working under kernel 3.0.x
http://forum.ubuntu-...html#msg3710395
the patch -> http://maffe.servizi...F9035-3.0.patch
It looks to work fine in a Personal Computer running kernel 3.0.x
And here a user has solved the problem about not scanning VHF frequencies
http://forum.ubuntu-...html#msg3753317
(I don't know if the problem was already solved by PLi. I will check PLi sources this evening)
I hope that AF9035 support will be added soon :-) :-)

- changed a little bit the patch to obey linux-3.0.3 path
- patched the original source/linux-3.0.3.tar.gz (decompress, patched, compress, generate new .md5)
- changed et9x00_defconf (you can find my changes searching the string '###' )
and now I'm recompiling.........
I want to see if .ko modules will be compiled.....

This evening I will try AF9035 module with 3.0.3 kernel.
Stay tuned :-)

Tonight Pli developers have added AF9035 support in master branch.
I've worked afternoon and evening to my patch .... sigh sigh
Well, stay tuned for feedback :-) :-)

Looking at your avatar, it's been a long afternoon
ambrosa 20 Oct 2011
well, it was good practice wasn't it?
Yess !!! You can get more knowledge only solving problems. If all is fine, there is no fun AHAHAH
DraK3 (friend of mine) has downloaded and installed af9035 this morning but it looks not working.
.ko are loaded correctly but AF9035 doesn't scan any channels.
This evening DraK3 will post here his detailed test
BTW also gennar1 has made some experiment with his TerraTec Cinergy Hybrid T USB XS here http://openpli.org/f...post__p__225008 (module em28xx-dvb ) and also for him scan found no channel.
Something wrong in Linux 3.0.x DVB infrastructure ?

It's the first time that I use OE and bitbake so the hard work was to find HOW OE works.

I don't think so, because my Terratec exhibited the same behaviour with the older kernels (2.6.18 and 2.6.31).
DrAk3 20 Oct 2011
after a fresh install the system need the following ipk:
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-af9033
kernel-module-dvb-usb-af9035
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-mxl5007t
kernel-module-tua9001
add the firmware and terrestrial.xml (attach in this post: http://openpli.org/f...allation-guide/)
reboot and enjoy!

I remeber: you answer me here http://openpli.org/f...post__p__223625 about my Pinnacle 330e which use the same driver.
ambrosa 20 Oct 2011
ok it works fine
after a fresh install the system need the following ipk:
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-af9033
kernel-module-dvb-usb-af9035
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-mxl5007t
kernel-module-tua9001
add the firmware and terrestrial.xml (attach in this post: http://openpli.org/f...allation-guide/)
reboot and enjoy!

Don't forget
dvb-module-dvb-usb
but probably it was already installed
Please report if it scans channels correctly.

Don't forget
dvb-module-dvb-usb
but probably it was already installed
Please report if it scans channels correctly.
dvb-module-dvb-usb is automatically installed because is listed as dependence of the others

It's missing file
/etc/modutils/dvb-usb-af9035
I need to do manually:
echo "dvb-usb-af9035" > /etc/modutils/dvb-usb-af9035
update-modules
If not, module is not loaded ...
There's need to update ipk package....

Are the other modules load without adjustment in de modules?
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-af9033
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-mxl5007t
kernel-module-tua9001
Gennar1 21 Oct 2011
Yes you need to add: module_autoload_dvb-usb-af9035 = "dvb-usb-af9035" in http://openpli.git.s...fd9779b26b07d3a

Thank you, this is a very useful information.
Please add also:
kernel-module-em28xx-dvb

We probably do not need
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-af9033
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-mxl5007t
kernel-module-tua9001
DrAk3 21 Oct 2011
note that we do not need to add modules which are loaded as dependencies; just the bare minimum.
We probably do not need
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-af9033
kernel-module-tda18218
kernel-module-mxl5007t
kernel-module-tua9001
Af9035 need 9033 and tda18218... Without them you have an error during the modprobe
