Image file for Domoticz running on a Pi with HGI80 drivers installed
I started from scratch, and just did a standard Linux build. It's pretty quick.
Hi Paul - thanks for the push, working here too
did you find a way to permanently assign the HGI80 USB port to the domoticz VM - from what I can gather you have to reassign it if you have to reboot the NAS

I've not noticed that - reboots have been fine, I think. But then I don't reboot the NAS very often.
AH - you're right. Just done a reboot.
That's a pain. Wonder whether there's a way to force it?
Strange thing is, I have another VM (Windows in this instance) on another Qnap which talks over a USB-Serial converter to a UPS, and that one always connects OK after a reboot.

I'm sure I extracted them from a full Debian image. I'll try and double-check later today as I'm also sure I didn't have to mess around at all grabbing drivers when I installed the latest Ubuntu image on my NAS. The HGI80 worked just by plugging it in.
Thank you so much. As always it's the things that people don't see that take the most effort. Do you have the zip file or package? Or atleast a list of all the files and locations.i'very noticed the .fw and the udev file but what else?
The issue hits you when you are installing from source and starting from scratch. Also apparently the driver/firmware needs to be compiled for the kernel version you are using too. So any time the operating system changes you are left with a driver that won't work. Having recently finished installing Domoticz on my Synology (Debian Chrooted), and it was the HGI80 drivers that caused me the most grief. Luckily there is a guy that compiles these for Synology.
