Tvheadend does not install on Debian (Cubietruck)


Tilator

Recommended Posts

If you used our installer, then do this:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install tvheadend

and paste what you get and remember to paste URL from armbianmonitor -u since without this, a problem does not exist.

It installs fine on Ubuntu Xenial - I am using it and I reinstall it last month since I moved to H5 powered board. Install part is very simple.

 

You need to ask TVheadend creator(s), why it is not working on Debian. Not really our problem. All I can do is to remove it from our install menu for Debian users.

I know.

 

Unfortunately my tv card drivers compile only for Debian and not for Ubuntu with very same kernel. Tvheadend installs for Ubuntu but not Debian.

 

There is a bit of a problem as you can see.

 

I would like to try older 3.4.113 kernel, but it seems not to install headers in Ubuntu. Can you tell me what to do with this issue?

This comes in messages with Ubuntu having 4.14.4 kernel while Debian with same kernel does it just fine:

What is different between them? Zimage seems to be same, but uInitrd is not.

 

If Ubuntu just had exactly same kernel (without these errors) what is in Debian, I would be happy.  Is it possible to compile Ubuntu kernel with the same settings Debian has now?

 

Or is there something else I don't understand?

When you are up to solve something more complicated you need to understand few things first. 

- all kernels come with headers package and they can be installed from the armbian-config menu -> software. Never install other generic headers from upstream distribution (from Debian or Ubuntu) because of it simply won't work.

- there is no difference between Debian and Ubuntu kernels. They are always the same. Diff can be only on our download page since we change targets sometimes and there is a diff but it's gone once you do first update + reboot

- use old 3.4.y kernel only if there is no other way

- the differences between Debian Jessie, Stretch, Ubuntu Xenial are in many areas, but why you face those problems is really hard to say. Compiler-related? Bugs in a library, driver, ...

You are right and I know it too.

 

I don't expect you to have answers right away, because it's impossible. I just wanted you to know.

 

Debian version seems to have kernel 4.14.4. Can you tell me what update takes Ubunto to the same level? There seems to be "over night" update and kernel (dev or something else) available in armbian-config. What should I do to update 4.13.16 kernel in Ubunto to this same level?

 

B.T.W. I did try 3.4.113 install, but it did not install headers using armbian-config. It did install Tvheadend, but I was not able to try compile drivers because lacking the headers.

Good news now. Our young IT-man found the sources for 3.4.113 kernel. It needs only I2C-MUX set compiling in kernel.

 

After that it will compile Mygica T230C (third version with idVendor=0572, idProduct=c68a) drivers properly.

 

I do not know yet whether this works with 4.x kernels too.

I can now report it works with 4.14.7 kernel too.

 

Tvheadend repo server might have been down for a while some days ago, but I got it installed later. Third version of Mygica DVB-T2 T230C having idVendor=0572 and idProduct=c68a does not have mailline drivers yet, but it is supported by Crazycat DVB github repo.

 

BTW the new Armbian seems not to support nand. Not even if it is turned on from Armbian-config. I would like to move this complete installation from SD to nand now. Do you have any new ideas how to do it?

OK.

 

Found the reason for missing NAND from some other old posts. Seems to be disabled because Cubietruck NAND is considered as unreliable.

 

Well - I will put it back because I would like to have booting to start from NAND but kernel and user space to be on SSD.  I just don't remember if only SPL needs to be on NAND and U-boot might be on SSD too. At least it should be made to work if U-boot is put on NAND if SPL can't load it using SATA.
