Have reverted back to 2.6.22-14-generic now and have disabled the remote-pulling...and i just lost a tuner, restarting my cardclient and mythbackend got it back. Did you have remote-pulling disabled in -19 ? Still ticking along nicely here. I have options: options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=1 options dvb-usb disable_rc_polling=1 (since I have no remote) Is the ubuntu kernel completely generic? I still see an mt2060 write failed error every now and then (four in the past 24 hours), but that doesn't appear to break anything. Do you have complete tuner loss as soon as you get a write error?

[linux-dvb] Nova-T 500 issues - losing one tuner
Still no failures here on 2.6.22.19, had one or two mt2060 I2C write failed messages but that didn't stop anything working. Running mythtv with multi-rec. I've attached the list of usb and i2c named files that changed between 2.6.22.19 and linux-2.6.23.12. I'll browse through and if I have time I'll apply a few of the diffs and see if I can create a breakage.

So, if 2.6.24 is finger pointed, I'm interested in a solution, as I have a planned upgrade to it in about a month's time. In fact I saw failures against linux-2.6.23.12 I've diffed the two trees and am browsing (at leisure) the changes to see if anything leaps out. Just enabled mythtv multirec too to see if I can put a bit more stress on the system, still no failures. When I have time I'll flip back to 2.6.11.19 and see how easy/quickly I can get it to fail again.

[linux-dvb] [PATCH] allow dvb-usb firmware loading in warm state?
Hi,
I was having (still am! :) trouble with my nova-t 500 card and I wanted
a way to be able try a different firmware... but the current code only
loads in a cold state... and my mythbackend is pretty inaccessible, so
I made the attached change. This allows a module parameter of
force_load_firmware which causes the cold state logic to be used
when warm. Thought this might be a useful idea, it was handy for me anyway.
Cheers,
Ivor
