I am taking advantage of the holidays to address a couple of annoyances with my Hauppauge 350 set up, which has Ubuntu 8.10 (kernel 2.6.9-27, ivtv version 1.4) installed. One of them is not being able to properly shutdown when ivtvfb is loaded.
* When initiating the shutdown procedure, the screens (I use separate X servers for my monitor and the framebuffer on the TV) go blank almost immediately, a beep sounds from the pc speaker and then the system hangs. No mouse cursor, numlock won't work, but there is some occasional disc activity. Eventually, I have to press the off button. I can tell the shutdown procedure is not completed, because mounted volumes are not properly unmounted. I do not know what info/output I should give to help debug this problem. I cannot ssh into the machine when it has crashed (if that was an option to begin with). All I know is that when I comment out ivtvfb in /etc/modules, the computer shuts down fine. * Another annoyance might actually be a Mythtv (v0.21) problem. When I quit live tv, it tends to hang for 15-20 seconds (about 20 % of the time) or hang indefinetely (about 5 % of the time). What info would be required to debug this? * And finally, another Mythtv problem, probably, but I might as well post it here while I am at it: PAL teletext does not work. I get a 'page not available' message, but that is it.
