Ok soon i will write my first Howto about installing Hauppauge WinTV HVR 1100 under Ubuntu =About me=

My name is Seif Lotfy and I'm form Cairo/Egypt. I am 22 and studying Computational Engineering at TU-Darmstadt (Germany).
I have been using Ubuntu since October 2004 when it was released. (I also orderd soem CDs to test if i would actually get them).
I am really into robots too and i have been participatign with the GermanTeam at the RoboCup since 2006. I also like programing GUIs alot.

'''Howto install Hauppauge WinTV HVR 1100 under Ubuntu(Edgy)'''

This howto is for installing Hauppuage WinTV HVR 1100 under Ubuntu
"might work for other wintv cards" no guarantee though...

I used this froum its in french though --> http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=73834&p=1

Here we go
first check if your card got detected
 {{{lspci
}}}
you should get something like:
 {{{0000:00:12.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7133 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev d1)
        Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 6701
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 12
        Memory at eb101000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K]
        Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2}}}

first make sure you have the packacges required for the configuration of the card, open a console and type:
 {{{sudo apt-get install build-essential mercurial linux-headers-`uname -r` dvb-utils
}}}

then get the v4l-dvb files:
 {{{cd /opt/
hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb
cd v4l-dvb
make
sudo make install
sudo -s}}}

then modprobe:
 {{{sudo modprobe -r saa7134-alsa saa7134-dvb saa7134 && sudo modprobe saa7134 card=101 && sudo modprobe saa7134-dvb
echo "saa7134-dvb" >> /etc/modules}}}

now get the firmware compatible with your card from
http://thadathil.net:8000/dvb/
then "sudo" copy it to /lib/firmware

 {{{sudo reboot
}}}

I think that was it
use scantv or mythtv to scan for channels
i will wrtie a tutorial as soon as i get to it
