Steve, the noise was not without reason.

You might see, that all your drivers within and out of the kernel have
been broken. Not to make any noise then, seems to me not a good idea.

Also, on LKML was some stuff, that there is a general problem
initializing PCI devices multiple times and eventually have problems on
shutdown/suspend then. But to late for the recent -rc.

So, as it stands, given that we are not that backward compatible as have
been previously anymore, to know that this change to 2.6.24 did anything
usefull, what I doubt, would be not bad to have in details.

Cheers,
Hermann

SUCCESS!

Built 2.6.24-3 and installed it.  Recompiled CVS, and installed it.

Now it doesn't hang when it finds a signal.

I'm compiling 2.4.24 right now to test it.

I've been running this box for over a year with a TV2000 card without
issues.  I was just trying to upgrade into DTV.

So, I really don't think it's a memory issue.

The TV2000 was a pci, this is my first pcie card I'm using in this box.

2008-03-17 Thread Mark A Jenks
Okay, clean install.  Did it again.

Installed Suse 10.3, installed all updates.  Uninstalled lirc, but I see
the modules are still there.

So, pretty much clean install.  Added kernel-sources, and gcc.  Compiled
and installed CVS.

Modprobe cx23885

Didn't even load the Nvidia drivers.

Let me get rid of lirc_imon & lirc_imon2 and see what happens.
