Command lsusb and lspci
#1
Folks,

I've been running an older Hauppauge tuner on a raspian system using tvheadend for some time. Due to age of the tuner I did have to copy some older .fw files into the system but all worked fine.

Decided to neaten my system and transfer tuner to my Kodi v 17.3 running on my Pi attached to a TV

Transferred the .fw files into the correct folder - didn't work.

Trying to investigate tried lsusb and lspci - says command not found

Not sure now how to narrow down why my tuner not working.

lspci won't work as a Raspberry Pi doesn't have a PCI bus, but lsusb should work just fine.

Code:
osmc@osmc:~$ lsusb
-bash: lsusb: command not found
osmc@osmc:~$

Yes, of course lspci won't work, I just checked it without thinking as surprised lsusb didn't work.

osmc is debian based

Code:
sudo apt-get install usbutils

Thank you, will try that.

Thought lsusb and similar were all part of the Linux operating system

They're optional packages on some distros.

Most distros install usbutils by default. Osmc is a light distro with just enough packages to run kodi, so don't expect to find every command you'd find on a desktop.
