A DVB-S2 PCI card by TechniSat. For the SkyStar HD2 please see the Azurewave AD-SP400 CI (Twinhan VP-1041).

Supported since kernel 2.6.29.

Overview

Apparently the card is actually a rebranded TechnoTrend TT-budget S2-3200. See that page for more details.

Components Used

It also supports an add-on CI slot.

Drivers

See TechnoTrend TT-budget S2-3200.

Modules

With current drivers the required modules should all load correctly on boot.


modprobe stb0899 stb6100 saa7146 lnbp21
modprobe budget-ci

If you don't load the other modules first, you'll get

DVB: Unable to find symbol stb6100_attach()

As with all DVB drivers, if you don't see any cards and frontends in multiproto's menuconfig, enable I2C in your kernel config and in multiproto do make distclean afterwards.
