Medion MD95700 (DVB-T)

please review this text ... thanks!!

On a Suse 10.1 default smp kernel, the driver module dvb-usb-cxusb.ko is missing. The USB box can not be used without building this module. The sources of this driver are in the files drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/cxusb.*.

The driver for the Medion MD 95700 is referenced in newer kernel configuration as "Conexant USB2.0 hybrid reference design support". Yast uses the term "Conexant DVB-T reference design".

To build this driver:

• Install kernel-source, gcc, ncurses and optional kernal-syms
• cd /usr/src/linux
• Optional copy the current kernel configuration: cp /proc/config.gz .config
• Enable the build of the missing module:
  • su
  • make menuconfig
  • Device Drivers -> Multimedia Devices -> Digital Video Broadcasting Devices -> Conexant USB2.0 hybrid reference design support -> build as Module
• Build either the the whole kernel inluding modules or this single module. The build process is described in /usr/src/linux/README.SUSE
• Install the module(s)
• Load the module using "modprobe dvb-usb-cxusb". On reboot, the module should be automaticallly loaded if the box is connected.
• The devices /dev/dvb/adapter0/* should be created on module load
• Configure the box using Yast -> Hardware -> Tv Card -> Add -> Other -> Conexant DVB-T reference design
• Install and configure your favorite DVB Tv application
