So I did. And it did nothing good :( The first run ended in a locked up frontend after VDR started it's EPG scan without any lockup-message in the logs: [loading the driver and starting vdr, then I switched to a couple of channels:] Aug 9 12:06:41 glotze kernel: sp8870_set_frontend: Delay (40 usec) Aug 9 12:06:44 glotze vdr[32402]: switching to channel 3 Aug 9 12:06:44 glotze kernel: sp8870_set_frontend: Delay (440 usec) Aug 9 12:06:47 glotze vdr[32402]: switching to channel 4 Aug 9 12:06:47 glotze kernel: sp8870_set_frontend: Delay (20 usec) [and after five hours the EPG scan kicks in:] Aug 9 17:07:07 glotze kernel: sp8870_set_frontend: Delay (20 usec) Aug 9 17:07:28 glotze kernel: sp8870_set_frontend: Delay (50 usec) Aug 9 17:07:49 glotze kernel: sp8870_set_frontend: Delay (50 usec) ...

Unfortunatly I forgot to change the script which reloads the driver so the alps_tdlb7.o loaded without debug=1. But after another five hours VDR's EPG-scan kicked in once again and I got this in my logs: Aug 10 05:27:24 glotze kernel: sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_front end: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: fir mware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware cr ash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!s p8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_se t_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_fronte nd: firmware crash!!!!sp8870_set_frontend: This repeated roughly every 11 minutes until I tried to switch to another channel... I'm now running again with debug=1 after I shut off the machine and rebooted it to get the card into a clean state.
