Note: the above output is with a kernel version 3.4, so the ATSC-M/H support is not included
Note: the above output is with a kernel version 3.5, and all 3 frontends on the adapter are registered. The output above is <font color="#009000">annotated</font> to note the difference if you are using a pre version 3.5 kernel.

Note: the above output is with a kernel version 3.5, and all 3 frontends on the adapter are registered. The output above is annotated to note the difference if you are using a pre version 3.5 kernel.

Remote Control Support

The remote has been successfully tested under Linux during driver development, however, said support is currently disabled, but will likely will be re-introduced in the near future.
