Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.20-13-generic
Hi,
I have two identical (as far as I know) AverMedia 771 DVB-T cards
installed on this system. This system does PVR duties with mythtv,
amongst other things.
Running Gentoo, and later Dapper, I was able to use both DVB cards (I
think: I'm certain it was okay in Gentoo, not as certain for Dapper, as
it only ran for about a week and I didn't test this) without issues.
However, since re-formatting and installing Fiesty, the system only
seems to work correctly with one of them. It seems to complain about a
'missing frontend' for one of the cards. Here is the relevant dmesg
parts:
[ 25.789445] DVB: registering new adapter (bttv0).
[ 25.842741] DVB: registering frontend 0 (Zarlink MT352 DVB-T)...
[ 25.842825] DVB: registering new adapter (bttv1).
[ 25.843263] mt352_read_register: readreg error (reg=127, ret==-5)
[ 25.843315] dvb-bt8xx: A frontend driver was not found for device 109e/0878
subsystem 1461/0771
I have no idea if that mt352 error is relevant, or what it means.
