So anyway... I am quite confused by this problem thus I'll stop here. But there is another thing. Sometimes, when starting locking with pre3, there is this message: "...: IRQ lockup, cleared int mask" (from saa7146_core.c).
So there might be a problem in the lower saa7146 parts of the driver. I must admit that there are probably many other pitfalls in that part of the driver. After the DVB driver had been forked off my old saa7146 driver, which was good-enough for me at that time, these parts have not been improved, while I have been improving my saa7146 driver in parallel up to now.
Although I'm the "saa7146 guy" please understand that I won't do any major changes or debugging in that part of the driver anymore (see below) -- some things are simply too stupid in there and must die.
> Can anyone give me a hint?
Hmm, perhaps you can give the "dvb-kernel" CVS driver a try. This is exactly the same dvb-core, the same frontend drivers and the same av7110 driver, only the saa7146 subsystem has been changed to support Video4Linux-2 for full-featured cards for example. It's the basis for the upcoming 2.6 kernel and the old av7110-saa7146-driver will be marked as obsolete when 2.6 comes out.
