hi, did you install firmware file in your Linux system? it should work with official V4L code like i explained for TBS 6920 here:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=45#p222

are there any errors reported after you get to lock/scan transponder? please, check this with:

# dmesg | grep cx88
# dmesg | grep 24116

hi, thank you for providing additional information. it seems i will need to test with kernel 2.6.35-rc, because your logs doesn't indicate any error(s) and your test in Windows shows that your TBS 8920 is working and your dish, cables, etc are setup correctly. please, give me several days time to check TBS 8920 with kernel 2.6.35-rc.
