Geniatech T230 tuner no longer working with this release even though the drivers are present for it. Works AOK on previous version. Any chance of a fix please?

The red symbol means the driver is not installed.

Did you click the green button to install?

The OpenSPA image installs the drivers automatically if you turn on the box with the USB tuner connected.

Is it possible you installed the kernel drivers?

There are two different drivers, the kernel drivers and ours, but they are not compatible. If you install the kernel drivers, you won't be able to install ours. My recommendation is that you install the image with the tuner connected. After the first reboot, it should work automatically.

If it doesn't work, send a screenshot of how it looks in the plugin and run `dmesg` via Telnet and send us the output.

I have already tried all of this. The result is the same. The tuner is always connected in the rear of the receiver. So when I flash new image the tuner never shows up & my Terrestrial channels all remain dark.

The entry in USB D Manager is always red.

If I then try to install from feeds nothing changes.

On previous version I never had to install anything, as you wrote, it works without installing anything, once imaged has flashed,

As requested here is dmesg output in text format dmesg.txt

For the record I have also tried on other release versions (ATV, ViX) & they also fail to load the tuner where on the previous image version the tuner worked fine - plug & play. So this is not just a SPA issue.

Stand down. I'm an idiot, I failed to see the Green "Install" button on the Spa DVB Devices page. After pressing it & rebooting all was good.

Many thanks for your patience & humble apologies for wasting your time with this.:birra:
