Talk:AVerMedia A828

Hi.

This isn't working on openSUSE 11.4 with kernel 2.6.37.1, 32 bits. Everything compiles OK, but when inserting a828.ko I have the following error message if I use the installer.sh script (generated in /tmp/vm-install when you run sh AVERMEDIA-Linux-x86-A828-0.28-beta.sh):

  FATAL: Error inserting a828 (/lib/modules/2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/a828.ko):
  Invalid argument

or the next one if I run it from the console:

  insmod: error inserting './a828.ko': -1 Invalid parameters

Greetings.

Hi,

Could you try again, and show what this command returns :

  dmesg
