Hi. I have TBS 6909.

After 2-3 days, it stops working and dmesg is full of these messages

Any help please?

try disable MSI interrupt

Code: Select All Code

options tbsecp3 enable_msi=0

Where to put this?

I've seen 2 different instructions about editing files in modprobe or somewhere similar.

/etc/modprobe.d/tbs.conf
and
/etc/modprobe.d/mxl5xx.conf




Thanks

Hi

If you are using open source driver use this
/etc/modprobe.d/dvb.conf

Thanks

Kind Regards

steven

now I have 3 files in modprobe - do I put all options in a single file? How do I know if they are working or not? THanks

tbs.conf
mxl5xx.conf
dvb.conf

if you are using open source driver you do not need the
tbs.conf file any more you can remove it
