Getting it to work

Just follow what is written on page https://github.com/ambrosa/DVB-Realtek-RTL2832U-2.2.2-10tuner-mod_kernel-3.0.0

Copy/paste from there (for kernel 3.2):

• sudo apt-get install build-essential
• sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
• sudo apt-get install git
• git clone https://github.com/ambrosa/DVB-Realtek-RTL2832U-2.2.2-10tuner-mod_kernel-3.0.0.git
• cd DVB-Realtek-RTL2832U-2.2.2-10tuner-mod_kernel-3.0.0
• cd RTL2832-2.2.2_kernel-3.0.0

• edit Makefile, option INCLUDE_EXTRA_DVB (comment out line "INCLUDE_EXTRA_DVB := include-300", delete comment in front of "INCLUDE_EXTRA_DVB := include-320")
• make clean
• make
• sudo make install
• modprobe dvb_usb_rtl2832u

Use it. Me-tv hangs, but Kaffeine works without a problem. I did it on Ubuntu 12.04, kernel 3.2, it should work on any distro using 3.0 or 3.2 kernel (do not edit Makefile if using kernel 3.0 :)).

Kernel driver status

Not supported yet. I tried 3.5-rc2, and no luck.
