TBSDTV Community Forum

I left this in anticipation of a distro upgrade solving the problem. Well, it certainly moved it on. Last night compilation stopped at: *** No rule to make target '/home/thelma/Programs/tbs/linux-tbs-drivers/v4l/tbsctrl.o', needed by '/home/thelma/Programs/tbs/linux-tbs-drivers/v4l/saa716x_tbs-dvb.o...

Thank you but you have missed my point completely.

I want to boot on a live distro, compile and install the the TBS drivers.
Start up kaffeine and see if contact continues indefinitely.

I need to choose the best live distro for this.

I need to test the Linux TBS driver from a live CD environment in order to identify where an intermittent problem is coming from. This means one in which I can access the kernel source and devel files and compile the drivers before running Kaffeine. My current problem is that I have MythTV installed...

It is a if mythv loses track of the tuners. If I reboot, it works again but only for a while. Sometimes up to a week. I have studied the backend log and see several groups like this, each time with different Program # numbers : 2016-07-15 16:31:19.709847 N [2413/2655] Expire autoexpire.cpp:264 (Calc...

This is the error line shown during 'make' File not found: /lib/modules/4.4.13-desktop-1.mga5/build/include/linux/netdevice.h at scripts/make_config_compat.pl line 15. What is my next best move please? As I searched, I realised there were other problems too and in the end had to reinstall the operat...

I thought I had cleared the ¬/media folder and created the driver correctly as no errors were reported. However, I removed all unwanted kernels and ran it all again although I did download an even fresher driver set before I started. That worked but after while I again got 'device not found'. I then...

Having successfully compiled the latest driver for my tbs-6280 yesterday, I fully expected everything to run smoothly. I now find that kaffeine returns 'device not found' and mythtv says 'all tuners are busy'. I re-ran make install to see again what the depmod line looked like and it looked OK A sus...

I feel very foolish. I had the 'devel' file for an earlier kernel.
I do apologise for wasting your valuable time.

when using 'make' I get:

File not found: /lib/modules/4.1.15-desktop-2.mga5/build/.config at ./scripts/make_kconfig.pl line 33, <IN> line 4.

¬/build/.config does not exist.

Can anyone help?

It is OK I followed advice given elsewhere on the forum about purging the drivers and starting again.
Thanks for your help.
