Got myself a cheap dvb-t udb device.
Anyone has a suggestion to get this puppy working with openSUSE 11.0

usb 2-4: New USB device found, idVendor=8086, idProduct=9500
usb 2-4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 2-4: Product: CE9500B1
usb 2-4: Manufacturer: Intel Corporation (UK) Ltd

DealExtreme: Reviews for USB DVB-T TV Dongle with Remote has a message that
*“SuSE Linux 10.2 supports this device as the “SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder” in the Yast TV card setup module”
*

It’s not auto detected. In openSUSE 11.0 the SAA7133… is not available.

My trusty old DEC2000T looks much the same as your dmesg stuff, but then it loads its firmware, which I don’t see in your case.

Have you got firmware for your DVB stick, and is it in /lib/firmware?

Le KviK! guide:

Grab:
http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/dvb/get_dvb_firmware

perl get_dvb_firmware
<insert coffee break>
copy resulting .fw to /lib/firmware
rcdvb restart or rmmod/modprobe driver.

And there was much rejoicing.

All these cheap USB dvb-t devices look the same.

I don’t think mine is going to work:

Thanks anyway

It’s currently not supported

I’ve collected all info on the device on:
