Get dvb_hdhomerun to work with debian

Ask Time：2013-09-02T15:28:42 Author：brange

Im trying to get a Silicon Dust network DVB receiver to work with my debian machine.

My debian is running:

uname -a:
Linux myMachine 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.46-1+deb7u1 x86_64 GNU/Linux

lsb_release -a
Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 7.1 (wheezy)
Release:        7.1
Codename:       wheezy

I've tried a lot, but my latest attempt is the following

apt-get source linux-headers-3.2.0-4-amd64
# I got a folder named linux-3.2.46
cd linux-3.2.46
# vim Makefile, changed SUBLEVEL to 0, and EXTRAVERSION to '-4-amd64'
cp /boot/config-3.2.0-4-amd64 .config
make oldconfig
cp /usr/src/linux-3.2.46/Module.symvers .
make prepare scripts
cd ../dvb_hdhomerun-0.0.15/kernel
vim Makefile, changed KERNEL_DIR to the linux-3.2.46 dir.
make # works fine
make install # works fine.

I can build the module, but when I try to load it with modprobe I get the following error

ERROR: could not insert 'dvb_hdhomerun': Exec format error

dmesg says

While the accepted answer does indeed work. It's not ideal because you end up with:\n\n\nunmanaged software\npoor init scripts\nno systemd support\nno kernel upgrade support\n\n\nSince I was re-installing my home server I decided to work on fixing the dkms dpkg mess.\n\nhttps://github.com/h0tw1r3/dvbhdhomerun\n\nRepo has the source for building debian packages that fix the aforementioned issues.\n\nLike the original author - I don't supply binary packages, but it's pretty easy to create them. Just follow the first two sections of debian maintainers build guide.",
