Hi,
I am trying to get AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD (A850) usb dvb-t tuner
running on mips32 little endian platform (to stream dvb-t from home router on
LAN).
I've cross compiled v4l-dvb mercurial sources (revision 11448:d4274bbb8605) and
when plugging the tuner stick, I get following kernel oops log on serial
console:
dvb-usb: found a 'AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD (A850)' in cold state, will
try to load a firmware
usb 1-1: firmware: requesting dvb-usb-af9015.fw
dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-af9015.fw'
dvb-usb: found a 'AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD (A850)' in warm state.
dvb-usb: will use the device's hardware PID filter (table count: 32).

The used dvb-t sources work ok on intel x86 platform (used kernel 2.6.24), but
on mips, there seems to be some problem with i2c after switch of the tuner into
the warm state via firmware load (tested with 2.6.25.17 and 2.6.29-rc7 mips
kernels, with the same result) - it seems to me, that adap pointer (or the
structure) is not valid (adap-algo is NULL):
