Making it Work

Make sure that the external power supply is connected!!!

Firmware

Build firmware from original ngene source code.

$ tar xzf ngene.tgz
$ cd ngene
$ cp ngene_fw_15.h ngene_fw_15.c
$ gcc -o ngene_15.fw -c ngene_fw_15.c
$ objcopy -O binary ngene_15.fw
$ cp ngene_15.fw /lib/firmware/

Driver

$ hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/
$ cd v4l-dvb
