Package: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7 Version: 2.6.16-18 Severity: normal
When I upgraded from 2.6.15 to the 2.6.16 in testing, I got this error message about my DVB-T card (some time ago the quasi standard card in Germany (and for this reason somewhat longer recommended for its linux support), the Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH Technotrend-Budget / Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T DVB card with the Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 chip): Sep 16 16:45:07 strcmp kernel: videodev: "SAA7146A" has no release callback. Please fix your driver for proper sysfs support, see http://lwn.net/Articles/36850/ Sep 16 16:45:07 strcmp kernel: stradis0: config = 10 11 13 c2 26 0f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff and indeed the devices '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' were missing --> it did not work. Further upgrading to 2.6.17 (in unstable) solved this problem, apparently someone followed the helpful advice. Just the code did not find its way into 2.6.16, making the card unusable with this linux version. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (450, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7 depends on: ii initramfs-tools [linux-initr 0.79 tools for generating an initramfs ii module-init-tools 3.2.2-1bpo1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo -- debconf information: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/elilo-initrd-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/failed-to-move-modules-2.6.16-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/prerm/would-invalidate-boot-loader-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/already-running-this-2.6.16-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/bootloader-error-2.6.16-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/bootloader-test-error-2.6.16-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/really-run-bootloader-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/kimage-is-a-directory: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/bootloader-initrd-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/lilo-has-ramdisk: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/abort-overwrite-2.6.16-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/abort-install-2.6.16-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/depmod-error-2.6.16-2-k7: false linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/old-dir-initrd-link-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/create-kimage-link-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/old-system-map-link-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/lilo-initrd-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/initrd-2.6.16-2-k7: linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/old-initrd-link-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/prerm/removing-running-kernel-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/preinst/overwriting-modules-2.6.16-2-k7: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7/postinst/depmod-error-initrd-2.6.16-2-k7: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
