Open source drivers - new kernel

[hasecomp]

First of all: the procedure to build the open source drivers (https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media/wiki) is simple and straightforward. Everything worked immediately for my new TBS6522 card (Arch Linux kernel 4.13.12-1-ARCH). Excellent!

Today Arch Linux upgraded the kernel to 4.14.3-1-ARCH. So I repeated the procedure for this new kernel.

Now, after restart of the PC, I get this:

[root@M3A78-T ~]# dmesg | grep dvb

Can I do something myself to repair this, or must the open source drivers be updated first?

Kind regards,

Hi

Before install the driver delete the media folder :
# sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/

or try this open source offline package :
#wget http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/document/linux/media_build-2017-1016.tar.bz2
# sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/
#tar jxvf media_build-2017-1016.tar.bz2
#cd media_build
#./install.sh
#reboot

Thanks

Kind Regards

Hello Steven,

It was sufficient to remove the media folder:

sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/

Thank you for your reply,
