matthoffman Wrote:I have gotten a 4gb thumb drive and followed directions on first post. The Crystal HD that is in my appletv does not appear to be working out of the box with this USB CrystalHD Branch and am looking for advice on what I can try.
I have checked the following logs and found the following:

If I type lspci I get the following (from reading other posts this is what is suppost to be listed stating the CrystalHD was found)

"02:00.0 Multimedia controller: Broadcom Corporation Unknown device 1612 (rev 01)"

I know the times for the logs above are not the same but the same problem happens over and over again.

The USB pen drive image was put into the stick using DD command on a mac. The image boots just fine I just can't get the CrystalHD to start. Any idea's/fixes?

I also just tried to recompile the kernel module with the linux driver downloaded from norco.net with no luck. Appears to be the same problem.

matthoffman Wrote:Thanks for the quick response. I will look into that file and see if I can find what needs to be changed. I am not much of a programmer but I will try .

Would it be possible for you to post the whole line that needs to have udelay(8); added? that way I can copy/past into bc_link_misc.c then recompile the module.

Sorry know your busy but thought I would ask anyways.

Thank you so much for the info
