I had a problem with that. Generally you should avoid smp, 4k stacks and preemption. My pvr-150 (pal) works ok but sound disappears after a while... Here's a script I use to load the modules, which I got from a helpful soul on this list: ---------------------------------- #!/bin/bash echo Loading IVTV drivers. echo Loading tveeprom modprobe tveeprom sleep 1 echo Loading videodev modprobe videodev sleep 1 echo Loading cx25840 modprobe cx25840 i2c_enable=1 #sleep 1 echo Loading tuner modprobe tuner sleep 1 echo Loading wm8775 modprobe wm8775 sleep 1 echo Loading ivtv modprobe ivtv ivtv_std=2 tuner=52 ----------------------------------- Of course you have to exchange the appropriate modules & options with the ones that are appropriate for you, like 'modprobe msp3400' or 'ivtv_std=1' (ntsc), tuner=? (39,40,47 are ntsc don't know about the others, although I want to remember ntsc-users talking about 50 also).
