I use the TBS 6981, originally with the TBS linux drivers,
but am now using the open source drivers in the latest
kernels (3.12 and on from memory).<br>
<br>
The TBS linux drivers do work, but use a very old version
of the media software stack, which can cause problems if
you have devices from other suppliers.<span class="HOEnZb"><font

Scott, I've just upgraded from Xubuntu 12.04 to 14.04 and tried to
get my TBS 6981 to work with the kernel drivers (3.13.0.x). No
luck. /var/log/syslog reported that the the 'on demand' firmware
didn't load.<br>
<br>
Can you let me know what steps you went through to get this
working? And what Os are you running?<br>
<br>
Gavin<br>
