** Description changed: This bug was originally filed against Ubuntu 8.10, but seems to still be present in 10.04 (Beta 1, kernel 2.6.32-18-generic). I have for testing a Hauppauge HVR-900 USB based terrestrial TV card. It is reported to work with the em28xx driver, all that is needed is the firmware that I originally had to extract manually: http://www.mythtv.co.nz/mythtv/2008/11/16/hauppauge-hvr-900-tuner-and-ubuntu-810/ Today the required firmware is included in the package linux-firmware- nonfree which can be installed directly from the repositories. The problem is that while the card is detected and modules/firmware loaded the files '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' do not appear. Without these files viewing any broadcasts is impossible. lsusb | grep Hauppauge: Bus 005 Device 004: ID 2040:6502 Hauppauge WinTV HVR-900 sudo tail -f /var/log/messages when inserting the tuner into a USB port: [ 1378.728075] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5 [ 1378.866848] usb 1-3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 1378.901423] em28xx: New device WinTV HVR-900 @ 480 Mbps (2040:6502, interface 0, class 0) [ 1378.901611] em28xx #0: chip ID is em2882/em2883 [ 1379.077879] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 00: 1a eb 67 95 40 20 02 65 d0 12 5c 03 82 1e 6a 18 [ 1379.077914] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 10: 00 00 24 57 66 07 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 1379.077945] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 20: 46 00 01 00 f0 10 02 00 b8 00 00 00 5b e0 00 00 [ 1379.077976] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 30: 00 00 20 40 20 6e 02 20 10 01 01 01 00 00 00 00 [ 1379.078007] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 40: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 1379.078038] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 50: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 1379.078069] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 60: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 18 03 34 00 30 00 [ 1379.078100] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 70: 32 00 37 00 38 00 31 00 39 00 33 00 31 00 38 00 [ 1379.078131] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 80: 00 00 1e 03 57 00 69 00 6e 00 54 00 56 00 20 00 [ 1379.078162] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 90: 48 00 56 00 52 00 2d 00 39 00 30 00 30 00 00 00 [ 1379.078193] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom a0: 84 12 00 00 05 50 1a 7f d4 78 23 fa fd d0 28 89 [ 1379.078224] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom b0: ff 00 00 00 04 84 0a 00 01 01 20 77 00 40 36 a5 [ 1379.078255] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom c0: 13 f0 74 02 01 00 01 79 5c 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 1379.078287] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom d0: 84 12 00 00 05 50 1a 7f d4 78 23 fa fd d0 28 89 [ 1379.078318] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom e0: ff 00 00 00 04 84 0a 00 01 01 20 77 00 40 36 a5 [ 1379.078349] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom f0: 13 f0 74 02 01 00 01 79 5c 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 1379.078385] em28xx #0: EEPROM ID= 0x9567eb1a, EEPROM hash = 0x58673bdd [ 1379.078392] em28xx #0: EEPROM info: [ 1379.078398] em28xx #0: AC97 audio (5 sample rates) [ 1379.078403] em28xx #0: 500mA max power [ 1379.078411] em28xx #0: Table at 0x24, strings=0x1e82, 0x186a, 0x0000 [ 1379.079114] em28xx #0: Identified as Hauppauge WinTV HVR 900 (R2) (card=18) [ 1379.085953] tveeprom 2-0050: Hauppauge model 65018, rev B2C0, serial# 1287478 [ 1379.085966] tveeprom 2-0050: tuner model is Xceive XC3028 (idx 120, type 71) [ 1379.085978] tveeprom 2-0050: TV standards PAL(B/G) PAL(I) PAL(D/D1/K) ATSC/DVB Digital (eeprom 0xd4) [ 1379.085989] tveeprom 2-0050: audio processor is None (idx 0) [ 1379.085997] tveeprom 2-0050: has radio [ 1379.089772] tvp5150 2-005c: chip found @ 0xb8 (em28xx #0) [ 1379.096058] tuner 2-0061: chip found @ 0xc2 (em28xx #0) [ 1379.096216] xc2028 2-0061: creating new instance [ 1379.096220] xc2028 2-0061: type set to XCeive xc2028/xc3028 tuner [ 1379.096232] usb 1-3: firmware: requesting xc3028-v27.fw [ 1379.099238] xc2028 2-0061: Loading 80 firmware images from xc3028-v27.fw, type: xc2028 firmware, ver 2.7 [ 1379.144051] xc2028 2-0061: Loading firmware for type=BASE MTS (5), id 0000000000000000.
