common DVB USB issues we has currently
Hello, Here we are, that's the first part I am going to fix as a GSoC project. Work is planned to start after two weeks but better to discuss beforehand. And wish-list is now open! I see two big DVB USB issues including multiple small issues; 1) Current static structure is too limited as devices are more dynamics nowadays. Driver should be able to probe/read from eeprom device configuration. Fixing all of those means rather much work - I think new version of DVB USB is needed. http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg44996.html 2) Suspend/resume is not supported and crashes Kernel. I have no idea what is wrong here and what is needed. But as it has been long term known problem I suspect it is not trivial. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg10293.html regards Antti -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-media in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Did you perhaps cut/paste the wrong link? 2) Suspend/resume is not supported and crashes Kernel. I have no idea what is wrong here and what is needed.

Dunno if it's at all relevant but I used to be able (circa 2.6.32 perhaps? it's a bit foggy now) to suspend/resume with my HVR-950q installed and modules loaded. Now suspending with them loaded hangs the suspend and they can't even reliably be rmmod/modprobed pre and post suspend/resume. I just wonder if that change in behavior is pointing at something.

That means HVR-950q is not DVB-USB device OR it does not have DVB-USB-firmware to load by the DVB-USB-driver. regards Antti -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-media in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
