Hi guys,
thank you for spending your time on this issue - I really appreciate this, and for sure lot of others -
they were asking for rtl2832u support before me;
" RTL2832U is absolutely most common USB DVB-T chip. I could guess it is due to cheap price,
vendor provided reference designs with a huge amount of supported RF tuners and also
vendor provided Linux driver. One notable thing for popularity is surely also possibility of use it as a poor man's SDR."

And re. plain dvb-t : it will remain in service for a time for fta: public service, local news - you can not force population
to buy new equipment every few years to have acces to public service - and this is exactly use of tv dongle - instant and constant
acces to public service, local news; you know, ordinary people (like me) still want access to fta channels; dvb-t2 is primary for pay-tv,
but for that I suppose anyone who uses Kodi for that would go IPTV anyways.
Re. your advices:
- I tried to insmod armbian .ko, but no luck - insmod refuses to load it due to wrong format.
- I tried installing suggested older distribution, but no luck also: only dvb_usb_rtl28xxu.ko is present.
There were some versions of dvb_usb_rtl28xxu drivers supporting rtl2832u dongle, but they require
rtl2832 module as dependency and this one is not present in this distribution.
Regards
