Hi, I've recently started testing 2.5.7x kernels and dvb-kernel with a NOVA-T PCI in the UK.
I've spent a load of time building and rebuilding kernels because one moment the "budget" module would load and the next it would seg-fault on insertion with a BUG error in saa7164_core.c:67. After two successful runs with 2.5.73 and the CVS of the day (early July), everything just stopped working. Everytime I load the modules I get the error described. Further investigation suggested that this may be due to the amount of memory I have installed on this box (recently increased to 1.2GB). If I specify `mem="900M"' when booting - limiting the available memory to less than 1GB - I can install the dvb modules. If I don't - this is what I get....can anyone help?
