the issue is not the Oscam version (or options compiled with it) - running as a script, they all appear to work

exit 0It seems to check in var/etc/tuxbox/config/CAM$ which is what I found! CAM$ presumably is the name of the cam (in my case oscam-stable).
The scripts refers to our crude startup scripts that merely start Oscam without any PID management or the possibility of stopping/restarting or checking that the cam is still working.
