Request for Driver Support for MyGica T230C v2 // T230C2
Hello,
I've noticed that the available driver supports the MyGica T230C, but there is a newer version, the T230C v2, which is not compatible with the current driver. Could you please add support for the T230C v2 in Enigma OpenATV?

Additional Information on Geniatech T230C:
The Geniatech T230C, also branded as MyGica T230C, has undergone hardware changes in the T230C v2. Although the external appearance remains similar, the internal components differ. Notably, the demodulator and tuner used are Silicon Labs Si2168-D60 and Si2141-A10, respectively. The driver dvb_usb_dvbsky supports this hardware in kernel 5.4 and later.
Currently, the OpenATV 7.4 kernel is still at version 4.10.12, with no anticipated upgrade to kernel version 5. This poses a challenge for compatibility with newer drivers.
Kernel 4.4: Drivers are not shipped with the kernel.
Kernel 4.9.24: Does not ship the driver either.
Kernel 4.14: Included in Raspbian 9 in 2019, ships with the correct driver to support the T230C.
Kernel 5.4 Vanilla: The T230C and T230C v2 are supported by the dvb_usb_dvbsky driver, replacing the previously responsible dvb_usb_cxusb.
CrazyCat has done commendable work in maintaining support for T230C hardware within dvb_usb_cxusb in his custom build of the "media" driver subsystem.

The USB VID=0x0572 corresponds to Conexant.
While the vanilla driver is now integrated into the kernel tree and will eventually be included in distribution kernels, historical data and solutions, like those provided by CrazyCat, remain useful.

Devices name:
Geniatech T230C2

Specific Device Support:
Kernel Support: Yes, in kernel since 5.4
USB ID: 0572:c68a
USB Version: USB 2.0
Components:
Silicon Labs Si2141-A10
Silicon Labs Si2168-D60
Cypress EZ-USB FX2 CY7C68013A
Evolveo Sigma T2
Firmware Required:
dvb-demod-si2168-d60-01.fw
dvb-tuner-si2141-a10-01.fw
Notes:
Drivers can be built with media_build for older kernels.
Since Enigma2 uses an older kernel, you might need to backport the driver from a newer kernel or use the media_build tool from CrazyCat, which includes support for newer DVB devices on older kernels.

Steps to Extract and Copy Necessary Files from Ubuntu to OpenATV:
When attempting to load the modules on the Zgemma device, some modules failed to load, possibly due to kernel incompatibility between Ubuntu and OpenATV 7.4:
root@zgemmah7:~# modprobe dvb_usb_dvbsky
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'dvb_usb_dvbsky': Exec format error
root@zgemmah7:~# modprobe dvb_usb_v2
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'dvb_usb_v2': Exec format error
root@zgemmah7:~# modprobe m88ds3103
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'm88ds3103': Exec format error
root@zgemmah7:~# modprobe dvb_core
root@zgemmah7:~# modprobe rc-core
It seems that the issue lies in the format of the modules or the differences in kernel versions. I would appreciate any guidance or assistance in resolving this compatibility issue and successfully loading the necessary drivers for MyGica T230C v2.
I'm attaching the necessary files for the t230c2 v2 to work on Ubuntu: dvb_modules.zip
