ASUS U3100 Mini

[Jan Prunk <janprunk@gmail.com>]

Hi !

I have ASUS U3100 Mini USB Dongle and I would like to watch DVB-T
TV streams with it on Debian. The dongle when its plugged in lights with
the green light. Performing "(dvb)scan" segfaults.

I (partially) followed these guides:

http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Asus_U3100_Mini_plus_DVB-T

I am using debian testing and it seems the device gets somehow recognised:

After this I used the guide at:
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Testing_your_DVB_device

Which resulted into:

Done.

So I seem to be stuck here.

I please for some guidance here, thank you !

Kind regards,
