Firstly, thanks for an excellently documented question. It makes life a lot easier for us when people put plenty of detail in as you have.

According to the site below it's a supported device:-

http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB_USB#TerraTec_Cinergy_T.C2.B2

Do you have the cinergyT2 module loaded correctly?

Unfortunately it´s still not working. That's what I did so far:
rebooted

sudo modprobe i2c-core
sudo modprobe crc32c
sudo modprobe dvb-core
sudo modprobe dvb-pll
sudo modprobe cinergyT2

dmesg tells me:
[17180373.440000] usbcore: registered new driver cinergyT2

lsmod output:
i2c_ec 6272 1 sbs
cinergyT2 17540 0
dvb_pll 15748 0
dvb_core 85160 1 cinergyT2
crc32c 3200 0
libcrc32c 3840 1 crc32c

sudo scan de-Muenchen still errors in:

using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'

dmesg after unplugin and replugin:

[17181023.968000] usb 2-8: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

the behaviour of gxine and kaffeeine is still the same

Hi There,

i've got the same Stick (Terratec Cinergy T XE / USB-Id 0ccd:0055) here. Same Problem. As of http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2006-September/012569.html this USB-stick isn't supported yet. The Problem is, that it is neither the Cinergy T2 nor the Cinergy T XS. As far as I know this stick has a different USB-Firmware implementation to get it working with USB 1.1. This is the reason why it is not supported yet.

Today I took the pictures Markus want to have and send them to him, so that we could hope to have a stable driver soon.

As for the moment I see no other chance to get this device working.

Sincerly yours,

Benjamin Bender
