Hey guys,

I believe that I have a faulty Broadcom card since its not showing up when I do a: dmesg | grep -i crystal.

I have put up a copy of my dmesg output (full), xbmc.log file, and rc.local file here: http://pastebin.com/m4df84815

Thanks in advance for any help in determining if I have a faulty card or I screwed something up. (by the way this is a BCM70012 card)

Have you installed lib/kext? what steps did you take?

what is the output of kextstat? is broadcom kext loading?

try removing following from rc.local and reboot ATV

Quote:#
./sbin/turbo_atv_enabler.bin.
#
./sbin/kextload -v /System/Library/Extensions/BroadcomCrystalHD.kext.

I have moved this to hardware discussion as you can see, its not xbmc related.

Thanks for moving to the appropriate place.

I used the guide here: http://todayguesswhat.blogspot.com/2010/...le-tv.html and didn't have any errors through the process.

I removed the two lines you mentioned and rebooted. dmesg still doesn't have any output for the crystal card:

Kextstat added to the bottom of the pastebin output.

Broadcom looks like its loading:

looks good, kext looks like it's loading, If you don't see any messages in dmesg then the kext did not match to the cards pci id's which could mean that the card is faulty or not correctly installed.

xeta · 2010-01-13, 20:04

Thanks for the hand, I've gone ahead and cleaned/checked the contacts on both the broadcom card as well as the atv and reseated it several times. Just doesn't look like its working.

might try booting a linux live CD and checking with lspci.

xeta · 2010-01-13, 21:23

You read my mind...trying that right now.

xeta · 2010-01-13, 23:43

no luck under lspci either Sad

Ah well. I appreciate the effort.

Goes to show you that the search function can do wonders. I've been a member since 2004 and only needed to post ~ 8 or 9 times since then. hehe Just figured I'd give it the ol' college try. Thanks again davilla. Nod

I seem to be having an issue with my card running ATV, can't seem to load it either.
However when I run the LiveCD, I can run a 'lspci', but receive the following message...
"02:00.0 Multimedia controller: Broadcom Corporation Unknown device 1612 (rev01)"

Should it report it as the BCM970012?
The board has BCM970012 printed on it, but the chip on the board says 70010 - this is from ebay, could it be dodgy?

edit. Appears to be working on LiveCD so I guess I have just not set up the ATV side correctly?

xeta · 2010-01-18, 16:09

Yea, more than likely. Try and confirm that you have the kexts up and loaded successfully.
