And then this:
root@dm800se:/# modprobe /lib/modules/3.2-dm800se/extra/nims/si2166b/si2166b.ko
modprobe: FATAL: Module /lib/modules/3.2-dm800se/extra/nims/si2166b/si2166b.ko not found in directory /lib/modules/3.2-dm800se
I seems that I can not load the driver.
OK - so the sales pitch on e-bay are simply wrong. I tried using this command, and got this response:
root@dm800se:/lib/modules/3.2-dm800se/extra/nims/si2166b# modinfo /lib/modules/3.2-dm800se/extra/nims/si2166b/si2166b.ko

Arhh...spot on! This the real driver for sure, great documentation from you.
I tried to extract the folder to the specified path, and rebooted the box. Still no succes.
Do I have to load the module into kernel manually? Or does it detect the card and load the driver automatically?

Unfortunately the link does not work for me. Do you get access - I get a '404 Not Found'.

just do:
alps_bsbe2.ko - Alps BSBE2 driver
change this clone driver to original driver
I copied the above driver, overwriting the old one. Then I rebooted the box. Still - it does not recognise the tuner. Could it be that it is not a Alps tuner?
This is the description, it supports the newer boxes as well as 800SE: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175060733050
Many thanks - I will test it tomorrow!

I still think it would be cool if you made the clone image with original tuner drivers.
I don't think so - it works perfectly with the DVT-C tuner. I am using the box right now.
No, it still does not boot - stop halfway.
Maybe a last request to mrlu...is it possible for you to send me the Module folder from the original image? The all possibilities have been tried her.
Or is there some sort of tool so I can extract the files from the NFI image?
Many thanks!
I just uploaded the full modules folder, overwriting the 'clone' one.
Unfortunately the tuner is still not showing up.
I must conclude that the new tuner is either broken or this does not work for some reason. The only other thing I can think of is that the tuner is a new revision not supported by the older images. And the only way to figure all this out is to get hold of a original box.
You have been surprisingly supportive, and thank you for that. But I think the party ends here, we should not spend more time on this.
Just to add...
When I install the old DVB-C tuner in the box with the modified image, the loading also stops half way. So it is definitely some sort of driver issue.
The thing is, I cannot start the image after installation. This is what I did:
I am not able to ever start the image. So there is no way that I can get the modules in the lib folder.
I now tried it - still using bootloader SSL84D.
When the box is rebooted using your instructions, the boot process is stopped half way.
Do I need to use another bootloader version?
Thanks - I will try this right away!
Hi frank087234
Yes - I am aware of the link. The problem is that it gives me an error in the browser. I tried two different browsers. I think it autodetects my country, and then somehow it fails with 'da':
Incorrect format for file ./languages/da.txt on line 7.
Format is "variable name[tab]value"
I there any possibility that you can upload it here on the site? Or maybe send it directly to me - lemme136@gmail.com
In the meantime I posted the problem on their forum, it bust be relevant for all people from DK. Hope they fix it.
Yeah, I recovered it!!!
Using this approach: How to recover your DM800 SE & 500HD Clone From NO CA ERROR with SunRay-FlashUp and Browser - DM 800 - DM 8000 Tutorials (sat-universe.com)
I just installed the SSL84D bootloader I know work.
The link you provided do not work for me, it says:
Incorrect format for file ./languages/da.txt on line 7.
Format is "variable name[tab]value"
Any idea how to get the files?
Was not able to download the dreamelite on their website - link failed.
Then I tried some other images, and now the box is bricked :-(
Says some think like 'NO CA FOUND' in the display.
I installed the bootloader from here by mistake:
But thanks for your help!
To frank087234
I tried this one:
OR you can install original image via browser , and BEFORE booting .install clone bootloader via browser, then reboot
I tried to install the Original image from here:
But in the Flash menu it says ' INVALID IMAGE (OR OLD VERSION)'.
Any ideas how to proceed?
To mrlu:
That would actually be my last attempt. Unfortunately I already bought the tuner, so I would like to give it some tries to get it working.
The taobao website is all chinese...I have no clue what it says.
And I really prefer to buy a new one instead of a used on.
OK - that sounds like an interesting method. I will do that tomorrow - too late now!!!
