Trying to make it Work
The 3.11.10 linux kernel supports the AF9035 chipset. The device ID 1d19:6105 has to be added to the af9035.c module source of the kernel:
static const struct usb_device_id af9035_id_table[] = { . . .
{ DVB_USB_DEVICE(0x1d19, 0x6105, &af9035_props, "Dexatek Technology Ltd. Video grabber", NULL) },
. .
The module has to be recompiled as standalone module with command:
sudo make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` M=`pwd` modules
content of makefile:
dvb-usb-af9035-objs := af9035.o obj-$(CONFIG_DVB_USB_AF9035) += dvb-usb-af9035.o
ccflags-y += -I$(srctree)/drivers/media/dvb-core
ccflags-y += -I$(srctree)/drivers/media/dvb-frontends
ccflags-y += -I$(srctree)/drivers/media/tuners
ccflags-y += -I$(srctree)/drivers/media/common
The relevant header files have to be copied to the af9035.c file containing directory where the command sudo make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` M=`pwd` modules is launched.
Firmware
The firmware needed is dvb-usb-af9035-02.fw which needs to be put into /lib/firmware directory
Drivers
See AF9035 devices.
Test System
The device is connected to a multicore Intel X86_64 system.
> uname -a Linux Hostname 3.11.0-19-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 11 18:48:32 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
Kernel Output
So far the kernel after sudo modprobe dvb-usb-af9035 and connecting the device fails to load the driver. Investigation why it fails to load is on-going...
Kernel Modules
TBD
Remote Control Support
There is no remote control.
Snapshot Control Support
The housing is equipped with an push bottom to initiate a video snapshot. Operating of this shows no effect in VLC application nor /var/log/messages.
