Hello,
does anyone know, which (Kernel-)patches are needed to make a H3-rev. run a vomp dongle?
Could get it to load with "mvprelay", but dongle-2.4 only loads up to telnetd an then nothing happens. :-(
Some patches from mvpmc-0.3.0 only cause a nice reset.

Hello,
hmm, seems to be a bit of a monolog, but...
the main problem seems to be then script dongle_split.pl in the vomp dongle-builder,
which is unable to split a Hauppauge Rev 3.x dongle. The "ramdisk" unfortunately isn't
there anymore and was replaced by something starting with a "sqsh...x..wx..wp" pattern.
Identified as...
Major/Minor mismatch, filesystem on sqsh.fs is (2:1)
I only support Squashfs 3.0 filesystems! Later releases will support older Squashfs filesystems
..arrgh...

Hi Fourty2,
I'm watching this thread intently at least. I splashed out on *TWO* MVPs after deciding that VOMP is the way I want to go.
I was a bit twitchy when I saw this thread about version H3, and now I'm worried, because both of my MVPs (from different distributors) are H3s that'll teach me! Still, I can't event get the TFTP (I already have dhcpd and a tftp server on the LAN, so don't want to use the inbuilt VOMP ones) to download a dongle, let alone worry that it isn't working...

Scrub, that - all is nicely booting now - didn't realise you needed a dhcp and tftp server on wierd ports as well is the normal ones.
MVPMC works very nicely indeed, so at least there's hope. Just need to get a VOMP dongle for this hardware version. Any idea what's needed in the kernel; looks like a video driver issue?

Information source for adding H3 support.

Thanks for the info. It's a call for developers fixing the wireless MVP boot problems.
I don't have an actual bootloader problem, I just can't build the dongle as the build system fails. The MVP boots fine with the MVPMC dongle.
