Proper Installation TBS 5922 in Debian Jesee and Ubuntu

[subletra]

Hello. It has been a problem to install the drivers for this device. But I noticed that the instructions are contradictory. If you look at the drivers folder there are 2, 3 types of instructions for installing TBS 5922.

You can look at the README file folder and look at the file in the main directory of the drivers file. Besides indicating that file follow the instructions of a previous model (5921)

In any case, all are deprecated.

Here the correct instructions to install Debian Jessie (and probably Ubuntu):

Code: Select All Code

su -
apt-get update
apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
mkdir /lib/firmware
unzip tbs-linux-drivers_v150525.zip -d tbs
cd tbs
mv dvb-usb-tbsqbox-id5922.fw /lib/firmware/
tar xjvf linux-tbs-drivers.tar.bz2
cd linux-tbs-drivers
./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh (if kernel 64) ----- ./v4l/tbs-x86.sh (if kernel x86)
make
make install
shutdown -r now
dmesg | grep QBOX

Hi subletra

Please have a try
rm -rf /lib/modules/xxx/kernel/driver/media （xxx means your kernel version）

Then reinstall your driver again.

Thanks

kind Regards

Sorry. I think that is not well understood my English with google translator. The instructions I have given are correct:

Code: Select All Code

su -
    apt-get update
    apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
    mkdir /lib/firmware
    unzip tbs-linux-drivers_v150525.zip -d tbs
    cd tbs
    mv dvb-usb-tbsqbox-id5922.fw /lib/firmware/
    tar xjvf linux-tbs-drivers.tar.bz2
    cd linux-tbs-drivers
    ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh (if kernel 64) ----- ./v4l/tbs-x86.sh (if kernel x86)
    make
    make install
    shutdown -r now
    dmesg | grep QBOX

With these instructions the driver can be installed correctly. Review the instructions that you give in tbs-linux-drivers_v150525.zip because they are incorrect and contradictory.


Thank you.
