TBS 5220 Drivers and Fedora 22

[sp00ge]

Hi,

I'm trying to install the TBS 5220 drivers on Fedora 22 and running into issues.
I followed the readme file and can compile and make the drivers fine, but after rebooting the machine the TBS 5220 isn't detected properly.

Thank you again for your prompt reply and help !

Well, after configuring TVHeadend and doing a scan, it found a few channels and now my TBS 5220 has stopped responding.
I have rebooted the machine but keep seeing the following error regarding no frontend being attached.

I'm not physically able to disconnect and reconnect the USB device at present, but will try later to see if it resolves the issue.
