Andy. I just realized that my responses to some of your requests were not included in my last letter.
I did include my log messages, etc but I did not mention that.. 1. I did blacklist the cx18 driver byI editing /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and adding "blacklist cx18" to the bottom of the file. 2. I ran $ sudo modprobe -r cx18 $ sudo modprobe cx18 debug=67 retry_mmio=1 enc_mpg_buffers=1 enc_ts_buffers=0 enc_vbi_buffers=0 enc_yuv_buffers=0 enc_pcm_buffers=0 3. The driver did not load ok so I ran... $ sudo modprobe -r cx18 4. I then sent you the output messages.
