Hi, I recently bought a Gigabyte U7000 usb 2.0 dvb-t dongle. According to linuxtv.org it should work under linux (I know it is not freebsd...) with the dib0700 firmware (http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T_USB_Devices#DiB0700_USB2.0_DVB-T_devices). But under fbsd it doesn't... I'm running : bsdaddict# uname -a FreeBSD bsdaddict 7.0-STABLE FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #3: Thu May 29 20:47:26 UTC 2008 root@bsdaddict:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BENI-DBSD i386 Following the instructions on http://raaf.atspace.org/dvbusb/ I downloaded, compiled and kldload'ed the sources .ko with no problem : bsdaddict# kldstat | grep dvb 18 1 0xc7fe4000 7000 dvbusb.ko But then checking dmesg : ugen0: <GIGABYTE U7000, class 0/0, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 3> on uhub4 This is all I get. No dvbusb0 is coming up. When I try to download the firmware (I tried 2 of them, the dibusb and dib0700) I get (result is the same when doing it as root or as user member of the operator-group) : bsdaddict# dd if=/boot/modules/dvb-usb-dibusb-6.0.0.8.fw of=/dev/ugen0 bs=1m dd: /dev/ugen0: Operation not supported by device 0+1 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes transferred in 0.000126 secs (0 bytes/sec) bsdaddict# bsdaddict# dd if=/boot/modules/dvb-usb-dib0700-03-pre1.fw of=/dev/ugen0 bs=1m dd: /dev/ugen0: Operation not supported by device 0+1 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes transferred in 0.000184 secs (0 bytes/sec) bsdaddict# Any pointers on how to get this dvb-t stick working under freebsd 7.0 ? Thanks a lot for any help ! -- Beni.
