Public bug reported: I have a Hauppauge HVR 2200 dual tuner TV card that uses the Steven Toth saa7164 driver.
I use Mythbuntu and MythTV to record television. I just noticed that, since last Sunday, nothing has recorded. Live TV did not work. I checked dmesg/kern.log and it was full of these: [784356.796077] saa7164_api_i2c_read() error, ret(1) = 0xc [784356.796083] tda10048_readreg: readreg error (ret == -5) [784356.796091] saa7164_cmd_send() No free sequences Growing every second to the point that I have two ~4GB kern.log files and my machine filled nearly 80GB of free space with logs etc. I have restarted the machine and now it is working correctly. Looking around the internet, it seems that others have the same problem and it keeps recurring at random times after a reboot: https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/issues/1349 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/39591 http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1983887.html I am using the latest Mythbuntu (which is 12.04).
