[linux-dvb] Re: TT DVB-T not working

[Holger Waechtler <holger@convergence.de>]

Hi Nils,

please takle a look into your tuner module (the silver metal box) and 
tell me the name of the little chip inside. Juergens driver should work 
fine if there is a SP5659, but will fail if you find a SP5668. The 
latter is not connected via i2c but a serial interface, it needs t obe 
handled differently.
