tjansson Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Hi all I just bought a ASUS TV-FM tuner 7135 card, but I can't make it work. I found a picture and description at bttv under ASUS TVFM7135 (B-TV7135FM-ENG-R1.0). When doing lspci -v: 02:00.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA713X Audio+video broadcast decoder (rev f0) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.: Unknown device 4845 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 16 Memory at eb003000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2 and lspci [root@newton etc]# lspci | grep SAA 02:00.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA713X Audio+video broadcast decoder (rev f0) Kdetv see my card as a 7133 card but it is not possible to see the chanels. Kradio doesn't show any channels either. Kind regards Thomas Jansson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjansson Posted July 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 The little remote that was included in the package work somehow! I can make it close windows and bring up the printing diaglog in firefox? Will start look for a something to config it with! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 You have to set it up first. Open the Mandriva Control Center, hardware, and select the TV-card button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjansson Posted July 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 The problem is that only Asus TV-FM 7133 and 7134 are listed. Mine is a 7135. Somethings have changed though through the last few days i played around with alot of settings and at one point the kdetv icon appeared automatically on the desktop after boot and showed ASUS TV-FM 7133 card - but eventhough i tried to scan through the channels i did not find anything and kradio didn't work either?

devries Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 That shouldn't matter (as far as I know). The 'Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA713X Audio+video broadcast decoder (rev f0)' is supported by Linux. Do you have mplayer installed? Open a console and type: mplayer tv:// and post the errors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjansson Posted July 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Hi again - sounds great that the card is actually supported by linux!

A funny thing is that the KDETV icon on the desktop isn't there anymore, so guess i have unset som settings again. Anyways in mcc i did the config and chose 7134 as the driver and autodectect to the tuner part. :) Kind regards Thomas Jansson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjansson Posted July 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 (edited) I was playing around and tried to do a modprobe - which failed? [root@newton tjansson]# modprobe saa7134 FATAL: Error inserting saa7134 (/lib/modules/2.6.11-6mdk/kernel/drivers/media/video/saa7134/saa7134.ko.gz): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (seedmesg) Dmesg the writes: saa7134: Unknown parameter `radio' Do you know if this is normal or the main problem? /Thomas Edited July 22, 2005 by tjansson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjansson Posted July 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 (edited) I writing alot i know - hopefully sombody else can use this for their on debugging. In the /etc/modprobe.conf mcc had put a option radio=0 which failed. After i removed that part the module loaded okay :) Just before i went to bed a found some site saying that one could look in /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/video/saa7134/saa7134.h and look for uncommented cards or something like that and i found a line saying: #define SAA7135_BOARD_ASUSTeK_TVFM7135 53 In the file /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/video/saa7134/saa7134-cards.c i found [SAA7135_BOARD_ASUSTeK_TVFM7135] = { .name = "ASUS TV-FM 7135", .audio_clock = 0x00187de7, .tuner_type = TUNER_PHILIPS_TDA8290, .gpiomask = 0x200000, .inputs = {{ .name = name_tv, .vmux = 1, .amux = TV, .gpio = 0x0000, .tv = 1, },{ .name = name_comp1, .vmux = 4, .amux = LINE2, .gpio = 0x0000, },{ .name = name_svideo, .vmux = 6, .amux = LINE2, .gpio = 0x0000, }}, .radio = { .name = name_radio, .amux = TV, .gpio = 0x200000, }, which makes me belive that the tuner is a TDA8290. However this i maybe not supported in linux if I am to belive linuxtv.org. I tried to make to see if xawtv would work but I guess that either the tuner part is wrong or something else. I did modprobe saa7134 card=53 and xawtv gave me: /dev/video1: OK [ -device /dev/video1 ] type : v4l2 name : UNKNOWN/GENERIC flags: overlay capture tuner Edited July 22, 2005 by tjansson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
