talpa.startup: Unable to load Talpa modules.

Hi Clinton H 

Ubuntu 19.10 is not supported with Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux. Please refer to this article which information regarding supported OS.

We have now released updated Talpa that should work on the 5.3 kernel in Ubuntu 19.10.

You'll need to have an updated install to get the new version of Talpa though - the install package won't work until it updates itself.

HI

How Can I update my installation? Do I need reinstall it?

Hi Mediter Juridico 

You need to download updated installer on your machine and then reinstall the Sophos as new packs are with the latest downloader.

When you install, and select the free option, SAV will be automatically configured for updating.

It should update every hour.

The installation package will not support your kernel without doing an update.

Hi 

I have make fresh installation of Sophos on CentOS 7 and I got the same error :S 

If it's a fresh install, make sure it has completed a full update before worrying about whether Talpa is loading.

It will need to update to get a Talpa Binary Pack for your kernel (since we publish Talpa Binary Packs for CentOS 7).

If you are running a non-standard kernel or a very new standard kernel, you may need to compile Talpa locally, in which case you will need a Kernel module build environment - gcc, make and kernel headers.
