Revision as of 19:30, 27 October 2012
DVB-S/S2 USB box manufactured by TeVii
Hardware/Features
- USB 2.0
- Power Supply is via 7.5V - that is outstanding, and I wonder how this come?!
Components Used
Identification
lsusb:
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 9022:d660 TeVii Technology Ltd.
Linux support
Supported by the vanilla kernel and the s2-liplianin v4l branch.
This works for me on a Debian Squeeze (2.6.32):
apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential mkdir /usr/local/src/dvb cd /usr/local/src/dvb wget http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin/archive/tip.zip unzip s2-liplianin-0b7d3cc65161.zip cd s2-liplianin-0b7d3cc65161 make CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV:=n make install
The firmware is downloaded from the Ubuntu forums (External Links), there are lots of different versions. This works for me:

As per the Tevii S480 (two S660s on one PCIe card, plus onboard USB controller - http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TeVii_S480 ),
the S660 as of Ubuntu 11.10/Kernel 3.0.x, this is now supported as part of the mainline Kernel, so no drivers require compilation.
