I'm resurrecting an older thread. I have a Hauppage USB Live2 connected to a MIPS box running openWRT. I tried this earlier on a older hardware running the 3.0.3 kernel. This is with newer hardware running 2.6.39.4. The driver attempts to allocate 800MB (!!!) of memory for the buffer and fails with a kernel crash. I'm not including any kernel crash stuff as it has all the symbols stripped.

This seems to be the key message:

[  514.770000] unable to allocate 805398992 bytes for transfer buffer 0

What can I do to narrow down the allocation problem?
