Somehow w_scan works with Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS but I have not been able to get picture. The driver may need a patch to improve signal quality or something. It did manage to get some signal because I got Kaffeine to show program guide information, but the picture remained a black screen and no audio. |

Making it Work
Somehow w_scan works with Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS but I have not been able to get picture. The driver may need a patch to improve signal quality or something. It did manage to get some signal because I got Kaffeine to show program guide information, but the picture remained a black screen and no audio.
Firmware
The required firmware I believe is included with Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS. (See dmesg)
Drivers
cx231xx driver is used.
