   I have been compiling drivers for the TBS hardware for over ten years.   
   For the last 6 or seven I have used their open source package.   
      
   In March I had trouble compiling it against kernel 6.8.0-52 I saw   
   from an email to TBS support. Their reply wasn't helpful but I found a reply   
   from another user describing some edits. I must have fixed it but every other   
   kernel seems to throw up new features.   
      
   I fully expected to have no trouble with kernel 6.8.0-83 but I have.   
      
   The devices I am compiling for are getting   
   on a bit so TBS staff may be reluctant to assist, although most fixes   
   have hitherto worked across the board.   
      
   I had hoped for a response from a fellow sufferer.  :)   
      
   Regards, Alan
