View source for AVerMedia AVerTV DVB-T Express X

The '''AVerMedia AVerTV DVB-T Express X''' ('''E568E''') is a [[DVB-T]] [[ExpressCard]] from [[AVerMedia]].

== Patch for kernel 2.6.27 and later ==
<!-- [[Patch for E568E and kernel 2.6.27]] redirects here. -->
The driver is not compatible with kernel 2.6.27 and later. It's been tested with Fedora Core 9 (32 bits) with kernel 2.6.27. It's probably compatible with others distributions and other cards (A808 compatible).

=== Installer ===
* Download and unzip the driver provided by AVerMedia (choose the driver for Linux x86).
* Execute as root (su or sudo) <tt>./AVERMEDIA-Linux-x86-A808-0.23-beta.sh</tt>
* Choose "expert" installation, and choose a directory (named <DIR> in our case).
* Finish the installation.

=== Modify source ===
* In <DIR>, you'll find a sub-directory A808-expert-install: <tt>cd A808-expert-install</tt>
* In this directory, do <tt>cd aver</tt>
* Open "osdep_th.c" with the editor of your choice and replace <code>#include <asm/semaphore.h></code> with <code>#include <linux/semaphore.h></code>, then save and quit.
* Open "osdep.c", and replace <code>#include <asm/semaphore.h></code> with <code>#include <linux/semaphore.h></code>, go to line 944, and replace <code>pci_dma_mapping_error(pa)</code> with <code>pci_dma_mapping_error((struct pci_dev *)pci, pa)</code>, then save and quit
* Return to A808-expert-install directory, and execute <tt>make</tt>. If no problems, you will have two files "300.ko" and "averusb.ko".

=== Copy drivers ===
* Copy "300.ko" and "averusb.ko" to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/ as root
* Get the firmware, using <tt><nowiki>wget http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/home/linux-dvb-firmware/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw</nowiki></tt>
* <tt>cp dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw /lib/firmware</tt>
* Reload configuration by rebooting your computer.

=== Test ===
* Use Kaffeine (or the software of your choice) to test DVB-T.
