After recent update which I have applied yesterday, my DVB-T USB stick stopped working. The tuner was working properly over last 2 months with TVHeadend compiled according to the instruction on the forum. TVHeadend does not show any any adapters, and femon shows error:
osmc@osmc:~# femon -a 0
opening frontend failed: No such file or directory
Indeed, there is nothing related to dvb in /dev/, while it used to be there (I’m sure as I’ve checked it some time ago).
The tuner is
osmc@osmc:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 048d:9006 Integrated Technology Express, Inc. IT9135 BDA Afatech DVB-T HDTV Dongle
Currently the dmesg shows:
osmc@osmc:~# dmesg | grep -i dvb

So there is no firmware loading message. But the firmware (original, delivered with OSMC) is out there:
osmc@osmc:~# ls -l /lib/firmware/ | grep -i 9135

-rw-r–r-- 1 root root 5834 lis 4 2014 dvb-usb-it9135-02.fw
And before recent update, the logs showed firmware being loaded and working properly:

Anyone has seen similar problem?
