TBS 6281 SE Problem #159

Open Simiil opened 7 years ago

Simiil commented 7 years ago

i compiled and installed the driver and modules using this guide: https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TBS_driver_installation

strangely enough, lspci shows the card as 

01:00.0 Multimedia controller: TBS Technologies DVB-S2 4 Tuner PCIe Card
    Subsystem: Device 6281:0002
    Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 11
    Memory at f7d00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=256K]
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 3
Capabilities: [70] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
Capabilities: [90] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [100] Device Serial Number 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00

Even though it is not a DVB-S2, 4Tuner card.

even after modprobing, lspci does not indicate that the card is used by the module. /sys/class/dvb/ exists, but contains nothing and /dev/dvb does not exist at all.

dmesg only says (after modprobing)

[  168.681186] media: Linux media interface: v0.10
[  168.685066] WARNING: You are using an experimental version of the media stack.
            As the driver is backported to an older kernel, it doesn't offer
            enough quality for its usage in production.
            Use it with care.
           Latest git patches (needed if you report a bug to linux-media@vger.kernel.org):

and lsmod:

# lsmod | grep -i saa
saa716x_budget         36864  0
tas2101                24576  1 saa716x_budget

dvb_core              110592  2 saa716x_budget,saa716x_core

using the official drivers works.

i am running Archlinux with a 4.10 kernel.

I can confirm this issue. I'm using mint 17.3 (ubuntu 14.04 LTS).

I tried the AUR Package from Arch linux and there are the same messages. Any update on this?

I've got the same issue, but strangely enough, it used to work with exactly the same drivers on another motherboard. (I moved a system HDD from one motherboard to another) Maybe a problem with MSI/IRQ.
