Compiling w_scan

I bought a DVB-T USB and needed w_scan to scan channels.

$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 048d:9006 Integrated Technology Express, Inc.
$ modprobe dvb_usb_it913x

Source code is at http://wirbel.htpc-forum.de/w_scan/index2.html

$ cd /tmp
$ wget http://wirbel.htpc-forum.de/w_scan/w_scan-20140118.tar.bz2
$ tar jxvf w_scan-20140118.tar.bz2
$ cd w_scan-20140118

Solving "ERROR: w_scan requires linux DVB API v5.3 or higher":

$ CFLAGS="-I /usr/src/linux-headers-3.3.4-030304/include/" ./configure
$ make
$ sudo cp w_scan /usr/bin

$ w_scan -c SK
