Issue with installing driver for skystar 2

Mike Peters

HI im having a problem installing driver for skystar 2 S2 HD on my ubuntu.

Here is the commands i'm running:

lspci -v apt-get install build-essential gcc make mercurial linux-headers-`uname -r` hg clone -r 9976 http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb wget http://www.bbti.us/download/linux/TechniSat_SkyStar2-PCI_r2.8_080709.tar.bz2 tar xfj TechniSat_SkyStar2-PCI_r2.8_080709.tar.bz2tar xfj TechniSat_SkyStar2-PCI_r2.8_080709.tar.bz2

Then i get the error below

bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file.
tar: Child returned status 2

tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

I think it could be corrupted when i download does anyone have the driver they could upload? Appreciate it

Ok i have managed to pull another tar from elsewhere and the put it in so now im compiling the driver. When i patch then go to make i get this error below

File not found: /lib/modules/3.3.0-32-generic/build/.config at ./scripts/make_kconfig.pl line 32, <IN> line 4.

I understand that its asking for a very old kernal of 3.3.0-32 and after doing a

uname -r

my kernal is 3.13.0-32-generic which is well above. Does anyone know what the best plan of action is for me to compile the driver now?

Hello
You put the skyStar to work?
How did you do?

Can help install?

Thank you
