Hi All, Further to Bob's email below, I confirm that this regression is present in 2.6.30.2.
Once the problem occurs, I see the following message repeatedly in my logs: Jul 27 21:49:21 f kernel: [ 2990.204264] dvb-usb: bulk message failed: -110 (1/0) >From what I can see, the problem can be remedied with a cold boot, at least sometimes. However, after running for a while, the problem reoccurs. More particularly, the card seems to work for a while when the device is found in a 'cold' state. With that in mind, I (naively) altered dvb-usb-init.c to try to load firmware regardless of whether the device was cold or warm. I also tried increasing the timeout passed to usb_bulk_msg in dvb_usb_urb.c. Neither approach made the card work reliably. Would somebody more experienced than me please suggest a helpful location for a printk or some other way to instrument this part of the code to track down the problem? Thanks! ------------------------------------------------- Bob Hepple Mon, 20 Jul 2009 16:25:29 -0700 On Mon, 20 Jul 2009 09:49:03 +1000 Bob Hepple <bhep...@promptu.com> wrote: > I have been able to import the channels.conf file into mythtv and then > all is well there. Hope that helps someone else struggling with this!! Actually, that's not quite accurate - with the 2.6.27 drivers and scandvb's channels.conf file, mythtv still can't tune the second tuner. So as a nasty workaround, on every boot (in /etc/rc.local) I need to use tzap to tune both tuners to _something_ for a few seconds and then exit. Only then is mythtv happy - but it's very happy on both tuners! Weird.
