<div>I've been trying to upgrade my old Mythbuntu recorder
from 14.04->16.04. Unfortunately, drivers for my DVB card
(TBS-6281) are not compiling with new kernel (4.11+). Has
anybody tried this config or am I condemned to 14.04 and old
kernel?</div>

There are now open source drivers for TBS see <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media/wiki"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media/wiki</a><br>
<br>
I have been using these open source drivers for a long time now
with my TBS 6981 (dual DVB-S/S2) and TBS 6280 (dual DVB-T/T2) pcie
cards.<br>
<br>
As with the TBS closed source drivers you have to rebuild if the
kernel gets updated.<br>
<br>
Note as of writing they work on Ubuntu 160.04 LTS (HWE) with the
current kernel 4.13.0-32-generic #35~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 25
10:13:43 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux<br>
<br>
They don't yet work with the just released 4.15Ubuntu mainline
kernel, build fails with a ring buffer error (it did earlier
today).<br>

<p>Apologies for hijacking the thread. I can confirm that the TBS
opensource driver works on 4.04 & 4.13 kernels. However on
4.13 the tuner fails to lock on any channel after power on. A
reboot fixes it and the card then works flawlessly. With the 4.04
kernel the card TBS 6902 (dual DVB-S/S2) suffers this problem far
less often. In both cases the driver is compiled from the same
source. I suspect it is a timing issue. A DVBsky dual tuner card
I had previously had similar issues where as a single tuner card
worked perfectly.</p>
<p>I am beginning to suspect either quick tune or EIT.<br>
