0012 Find out what device you have
0013 -----------------------------
0014 
0015 Important Notice: The driver does NOT support Technisat USB 2 devices!
0016 
0017 First start your linux box with a shipped kernel:
0018 
0019 .. code-block:: none
0020 
0021         lspci -vvv for a PCI device (lsusb -vvv for an USB device) will show you for example:
0022         02:0b.0 Network controller: Techsan Electronics Co Ltd B2C2 FlexCopII DVB chip /
0023         Technisat SkyStar2 DVB card (rev 02)
0024 
0025         dmesg | grep frontend may show you for example:
0026         DVB: registering frontend 0 (Conexant CX24123/CX24109)...
0027 
0028 Kernel compilation:
0029 -------------------
0030 
0031 If the Flexcop / Technisat is the only DVB / TV / Radio device in your box
0032 get rid of unnecessary modules and check this one:
0033 
0034 ``Multimedia support`` => ``Customise analog and hybrid tuner modules to build``

0036 In this directory uncheck every driver which is activated there
0037 (except ``Simple tuner support`` for ATSC 3rd generation only -> see case 9 please).
