Hi Robert,

Unfortunately it segfaults. I have attached the full output including
the backtrace [1]


I can't help with the segfault I'm afraid, but looking at that log it is definitely not managing to lock to any of the DVB-S2 transponders. The driver does work fine on S2 for me, but I am only able to test on 28.2E. Patrick did some testing on 19.2E so I'm going to cc him into this to confirm it does work there on S2.

In the meantime it might be worth checking that it is being tuned with the right parameters - I included some dynamic debug output to see what it was being asked to do when tuning:

echo 'file cx24120.c func cx24120_set_frontend +pf' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

This should output something like this in dmesg:

[2995692.044792] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: DVB-S2
[2995692.044799] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: delsys      = 6
[2995692.044802] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: modulation  = 9
[2995692.044805] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: frequency   = 1097000
[2995692.044808] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: pilot = 0 (val = 0x40) [2995692.044811] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: symbol_rate = 23000000 (clkdiv/ratediv = 0x03/0x06) [2995692.044814] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: FEC = 2 (mask/val = 0x00/0x0d) [2995692.044817] cx24120_set_frontend: i2c i2c-9: Inversion = 2 (val = 0x0c)

Hopefully from there it should be possible to see if it's being sent the correct parameters.

Regards,

Jemma.
