Kernel 5.7 compile TBS-Driver

[p3f]

Hello,

i want to compile the actual TBS-Driver to the Kernel 5.7.2 for x86. By compile i get an Error, which i'm not able to find the missing point. So please, if you see or get an idea....

The error are appearing on the Frontend STID135:

There seems somethings are missed by the pre-conditions.

Thanks, this worked for 5.6.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (Debian)

Also worked for 5.7.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (Debian), thanks again!

This media_build-2020-05-23.tar.bz2 worked also on my Fedora 31 (5.7.11-100.fc31.x86_64).
I could watch several DVB-C channels at the same time with vlc.

Unfortunately it broke my VirtualBox installation. Couldn't start VirtualBox anymore (vboxdrv does not load anymore
and actually it is missing under /lib/modules/5.7.11-100.fc31.x86_64/):

Nothing to do.

# akmods --kernels 5.7.11-100.fc31.x86_64
Checking kmods exist for 5.7.11-100.fc31.x86_64 [ OK ]
Building and installing VirtualBox-kmod [ OK ]
#
-> resulted no vboxdrv.ko file for the kernel (although says OK)

Now I'm running my old kernel (5.7.9-100.fc31.x86_64) with working vboxdrv. I need my virtual hosts.
# locate vboxdrv.ko
/usr/lib/modules/5.7.9-100.fc31.x86_64/extra/VirtualBox/vboxdrv.ko

Any advice how I could get both (TBS6205 and VirtualBox) working at the same time?
Also, I tried to remove akmod-VirtualBox package and re-installed it. No vboxdrv.ko.

This media_build-2020-05-23.tar.bz2 worked also on my Fedora 31 (5.7.11-100.fc31.x86_64).
I could watch several DVB-C channels at the same time with vlc.

Unfortunately it broke my VirtualBox installation. Couldn't start VirtualBox anymore (vboxdrv does not load anymore
and actually it is missing under /lib/modules/5.7.11-100.fc31.x86_64/):
...

Finally had some time to figure this out. I'm now running newest Fedora 31 kernel atm (5.7.15-100.fc31.x86_64).
With this kernel I need to do theses steps to get both running, my TBS 6205 and VirtualBox 6.1:

# wget https://www.tbsdtv.com/download/documen ... 23.tar.bz2
# tar jxvf media_build-2020-05-23.tar.bz2
# cd media_build

Apply this patch:

#ifdef NEED_PRANDOM_U32

Continue with script commands...
# ./install.sh

(Possibly) erase already built VirtualBox kernel modules and re-install:
# dnf erase kmod-VirtualBox-5.7.15-100.fc31.x86_64-6.1.12-1.fc31.x86_64
# akmods --kernels 5.7.15-100.fc31.x86_64
# reboot

Now my virtualhosts are up and running and I can watch TV channels with VLC.
Above procedure needs to be done after each kernel upgrade, though.

Failed with 5.8.0-0.bpo.2-amd64, and I can't compile opensource as my dist is not built with GCC9+

Is it possible to get an updated tar?

Actually, it's struck me that I can download the latest from: https://www.tbsdtv.com/download/?path=6&id=27

Duh, all these years being confused

Works fine with http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/document ... 27.tar.bz2 but have to assume the latest on the above page would also work.
