John, I was going to say that i was not running any cpu power management but double checked and saw that amd cool-n-quiet was now enabled since my recent bios upgrade. turning that off in the bios did stop the problem.
hopefully the system will not overheat now. I'll pay closer attention to this posting here and see if there is an alternate solution for me to cool the cpu with a kernel driver and not harm DMA activity: http://www.morph3ous.net/2006/06/16/solution-to-ivtv-drivers-ivtv0-warning-enc-0-dma-error-0x0000000b/ Thanks, Greg > -------Original Message------- > From: John Drescher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [ivtv-users] Question about the ongoing issue with DMA Error > 0x0000000b > Sent: 19 Oct '06 08:55 > > Did you try disabling any cpu power management that you may have running? > > John > > > On 10/19/06, GREG <[LINK: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > wrote:Before I send a detailed post about the issue i'm seeing, i just > wanted to ask the list if it is generally accepted that there is an > ongoing issue with DMA errors?
