Hi Eddi,
Im working on this driver. I have one HVR900H. Unfortunately, Ive been
too busy those days, since Im responsible for the entire subsystem
maintainership and I have a job that it is unrelated to V4L. So, I can
work on it only on my spare time.
The HVR uses a tm6010 chip. The commands for this is slicely different
than the ones for tm6000. The driver has some support for it, but some
adjustments are needed.
The firmware file is for xc3028XL variant.
The current tree is broken (the urb decoding code is causing some OOPS
during IRQ, causing kernel panic). Im debugging it.
About i2c discover, dont trust on their results. The normal procedure for
detecting i2c devices doesnt seem to work with tm6000.
Cheers,
Mauro

this card or can point me in the right direction ?
Mauro (tm6000 maintainer) already has one of these units, and I thought
he had it partially working (I could be wrong).
Hes certainly the right person to discuss the firmware tool with.
Hi Steven,
I bought HVR-900 since i know it has good linux support.
When I opened the box I discovered it was the HVR-900H.
(I was stupid since on the bow hauppauge wrote HVR-900-HD)
Since I dont see any progress about this card I tried to make it
working under linux.
I removed the card plastic cover, ant i seen the TM6xxx chip (but a
sticker deny me to read the full chipset model).
Since the demodulator and the tuner is under an heatsink soldered to the
PCB I cant get confirmation about the model of the chips.
I tried compiling tm6010 mercurial but it refuse to load xc3028 firmware
extracted from HVR-1200 driver.
After some i2cdiscover/i2cdump over the whale i2c address I found:
80 0x50 ok a0 1 eeprom
82 0x52 a4 1 ??
87 0x57 ae 1 ??
97 0x61 ok c2 1 tuner
So I suspect that demodulator and infrared are on 0x52 and 0x57 i2c
address, but that address in quite uncommon and never used in any other
card.
Can you give some additional information about the chip used in this usb
stick (without desoldering)?
Regards,
Eddi
