Check attach. Errors seen in log provided are most likely your fault. Looks like you are mixing v4l-dvb modules from different builds. Binary interface between modules is changed from build to build and thats why there is now incompatibility. You should: * became root su - or sudo -s * go to correct build development tree cd /patch/to/tree * to clean all build setup to default: make distclean * compile modules make * install modules make install And finally reboot your machine to take new modules use. regards Antti -- http://palosaari.fi/ ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

Re: [linux-dvb] AF9015 Driver (USB)
Hi. Sorry for my english I supposed that patch its for .23 kernels right? I change the sources on default Ubuntu kernel (2.6.22) for get that your driver working on this kernel (got errors when patching and want other module supports that .23 dont give me atm) and works. Work good, after few probes sometimes the video freeze (no audio freeze) and sometimes can't deattach dvb_usb_af9015 after a hang but that occur in very rare occasions.

I change the sources on default Ubuntu kernel (2.6.22) for get that your driver working on this kernel (got errors when patching and want other module supports that .23 dont give me atm) and works. Patch is not kernel dependent. It was done against current v4l-dvb-master found from http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/ . Just download v4l-dvb-master, patch it, compile and install.

I have one idea to try get faster lock, but haven't tested looked it more. how can i extract the diff between kernels for extract a patch? If you use Mercurial, as v4l-dvb-project uses, it can be taken simply by entering command hg diff inside of the tree downloaded from linuxtv.org.

Re: [linux-dvb] AF9015 Driver (USB)
Hi. I finally get your driver working very well with my usb-tdt-stick. So you can add to the HW-supported list the BestBuy Easy TV USB Stick (AF9015 + MT2061). If someone is interested, I am running it on an 2.6.9 kernel (minimal changes are to be added to compile v4l with these drivers). Now I am trying to embed these drivers on a [EMAIL PROTECTED] based system, without success yet. It seems that performance has something to do in this reduced environment (not actually sure). If someone is interested or has experience in this task, suggestions are welcome. Please continue reporting new releases for the drivers (I will). Thank you very much Antti and Manu. Cheers, Rafael.

If I remember correctly Ubuntu logs debug by default to /var/log/debug. On Fedora you should enable debug logging. It is done by syslog, /etc/syslog.conf. Examples to try: *.debug;*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages *.debug /var/log/debug Remember restart syslogd if configuration is changed. And check also that there is no race condition in drivers that same usb-id is used in more than one driver at the time. You need to remove driver duplicate driver module and install new one. Or broke usb-id from driver you don't want to use and install broken driver and then install driver with correct usb-id. /antti -- http://palosaari.fi ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
