Ultimate Edition Forum

my ausus A7sv comes included with a digital tv tuner I think is a liteon device.
Anyone knows how to make it work on Ultimate Edition 2.3?
thanks

hi
the sysinfo does not see the integrated tuner but this is what lsusb gives:

Hello rick_161z .

First please do not make 2 post on the same issue and wait for the team to get back to you.
double post are immediate will be deleted.
now to your problem (That is really big one),I was looking on allot of the issues on the net,
and the Drivers are on the Development stage.

lets see what we can do the best for you.
I need you First to install in synaptic allot of packages for support,and to follow some steps.
If you want to corporate with me on it let me know and we will be of the way.

Hi
sorry for the double posts,I didn't realize.
Do you think I am better off waiting for the next release?
Otherwise I am willing to go through the steps that you kindly offered,
I depend on "open connection" and connect to open network nearby so internet is not always available .
thank you very much
rick
