Scenario:
My usb TV adapter worked ok with LL2.4 but now I have tried to install on LL2.6 it no longer works.
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T_USB_Devices shows version 2 to be a longer stick than version 1, but mine is a small square stick and is version 2. The id (048d:9135) is the same and the marking is MINI DVB T. Command dmesg shows that the adapter is identified and is in warm state, lsusb identifies it as Zorin it9135 version 2. Firmware dvb-usb-it9135-01.fw and dvb-usb-it9135-02.fw exist in /lib/firmware. But it does not work with any of the popular TV apps. (BTW the adapter does work with windoze so is not faulty). I have searched the net and tried all suggestions, to no avail.
Later:
I had kept copies of the firmware version (dvb-usb-it9135-02.fw) from when the adapter last worked. Comparison of the file sizes showed a difference between the earlier and currently installed files, so I deleted the version which came with LL2.6 and replaced with the version which I last knew worked. Eureka - the dvb-t adapter now works. Note that its it9135-02, NOT it9135-01 as suggested at linuxtv.org
Anyone else having trouble with the Zorin MINI DVB-T may find this useful.
Compliments of the season to all LinuxLite developers, forum members and users.
