Hello Emard,
I just noticed that latest 05* patch won't compile with 2.4,
so here's the update with modified 05-getif2.patch and also
the joint patch for all patches for the testers to simplify
the patching
Thanks!
I just tried the joint patch and unfortunately it has the same problems
as the

Hello all,
I think all of you have noticed already that the official 2.6 Linux
kernel is out. It's the first kernel that officially contains the
LinuxTV.org DVB subsystem plus a variety of drivers for different DVB cards.
Thanks to everyone who contributed!
Because of the recent feature
Hello Nicolas,
All this is described in the new Documentation/dvb directory, please
read it.
I just download the kernel sources, but I don't find such a directory.
Did I miss something ?
The vanilla 2.6.0 kernel does not contain the latest bunch of patches I
was speaking of. They will be part
Hello Gregoire,
last problem solved in changing the order of the rmmod ;-)
I have still to learn why I don't see my cards in /sys/class/firmware/
Did you successfully load the firmware, ie. is the card fully operational?
If so, and if you used the hotplug firmware scripts, then the entry for
Hello Emard,
I'd like to experiment with the hotplug and
firmware loading. I installed latest hotplug for
debian and now I'd like to load av7110 firmware
with it.
AFAICS dvb-ttpci loads compiled-in firmware
Can someone enlighten me in few shell commands
how to stop dvb-ttpci from loading the
Hello Luke,
Simply load the basic modules via modprobe:
modprobe bttv card=0x68 i2c_hw=1
I tried that and got this error, followed by a segfault:
# modprobe bttv card=0x68 i2c_hw=1
Warning: ignoring i2c_hw=1, no such parameter in this module
Segmentation fault
The error above indicates that
Hello Luke,
I've just finished my new attempt, starting again from scratch, mostly
following advice from Vincenzo Di Massa and Michael Hunold.
This is what I did:
1. Unpacked 2.4.23 kernel, configured with video4linux, i2c, etc.
2. Build kernel modules installed both
3. cvs co dvb-kernel

Hello Bryan,
I got my twinhan vp1020 card working. There are some steps that were less
obvious than others. I noted a few things here:
Thanks! I changed README.bt8xx accordingly to your experiences.
What 2.6 kernel did you use?

Hello Clyde,
Can you please prepare a patch that disables this interrupt pin for the
Nebula cards? You can probably use the PCI vendor/device id to
distinguish the device from others...
I feel inclined to do better than that - the bttv module is really for
analog cards - I think I might merge
Hello Gerd,
Below is a ObviouslyCorrect[tm] patch which fixes the i2c bus timeout
handling in the saa7146 driver.
Please apply,
Thanks, applied!
Btw: I did not write the code that did the timeout checking... ;-)

Do you have an idea why this bug was triggered so regularly with the
Hello Gerd,
Hmm, unless jiffies don't start at zero but somewhere near the
wraparound in 2.6. That would also explain why 2.4 and 2.6 show
different behaviour.
I remember a discussion on lkml where exactly this was mentioned: upon
system startup, jiffies should be set some time before the wrap
Hello Oliver,
This requires two modifications:
[1] I committed a change to 'dvb-kernel' which increases speed of the
I2C bus for *full-featured* cards to 275 kHz (same value as in DVB).
Please update file av7110.c from dvb-kernel CVS.
[2] Apply the following patch to saa7146_i2c.c:
Hello Gerd,
Thats just the standard suse distribution kernel, not sure which version
that is. Load messages look like this:

Hello Oliver,
Basically I suggested to add a function to make 'short_delay'
configurable, because dvb-kernel did not tune as fast as DVB.
Ok.
The problem is that the saa7146 driver is used by different types of
cards. IMHO we need a way to select whether short_delay should be used

Hello Holger,
Maybe we should midify the insmod.sh script so that it loads only the
drivers for hardware that's actually existent. Something like:
[...]
if test -z `lspci -n | grep (*vendoridfor7146*)` ; then
# load drivers for saa7146 based cards

no, not
