Hi everybody, Hi Manu, I tried your patchset for Twinhan-based DVB-cards, but they give me kernel-oops. The card I have is a Twinhan-clone dvb-t card, named "Hama DVB-T PCI Card" (it's an exact clone of Twinhan cards) and I use the CVS dvb-kernel tree dated Feb. 17th 2005, kernel is 2.6.10. Applying your patchset and compiling was successfull. So after loading the corresponding drivers namely these here, " dvb-core bttv i2c_hw=1 card=0x71 dvb-bt8xx dst" I get the following output from dmesg (which is still fine, besides the last line!): "Linux video capture interface: v1.00 bttv: driver version 0.9.15 loaded bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture bttv: Host bridge needs ETBF enabled. bttv: Bt8xx card found (0). PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:12.0 (0100 -> 0102) PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 0000:00:12.0 PCI: Sharing IRQ 5 with 0000:00:12.1 bttv0: Bt878 (rev 17) at 0000:00:12.0, irq: 5, latency: 64, mmio: 0xf4102000 bttv0: detected: Twinhan VisionPlus DVB-T [card=113], PCI subsystem ID is 1822:0001 bttv0: using: Twinhan DST + clones [card=113,insmod option] bttv0: enabling ETBF (430FX/VP3 compatibilty) bttv0: gpio: en=00000000, out=00000000 in=00fb90fe [init] bttv0: using tuner=4 bttv0: add subdevice "dvb0" bt878: AUDIO driver version 0.0.0 loaded bt878: Bt878 AUDIO function found (0).

DVB: registering frontend 0 (<NULL>)..." This is the point where I start an dvb-application eg. vdr or femon, dmesg then gives me the kernel oops: "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000001ec printing eip: ccb1eb13 *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: dvb_bt8xx nxt6000 mt352 sp887x dst_ca dst bt878 cx24110 or51211 tuner bttv video_buf firmware_class v4l2_common btcx_risc videodev dvb_core ipv6 thermal fan button processor ac battery em8300 i2c_algo_bit soundcore adv717x i2c_core tsdev mousedev 3c59x joydev usbhid usbkbd evdev uhci_hcd usbcore genrtc unix xfs ide_generic ide_disk piix ide_core CPU: 0 EIP: 0060:[<ccb1eb13>] Not tainted VLI EFLAGS: 00010286 (2.6.10) EIP is at dvb_frontend_ioctl+0x46/0x4a3 [dvb_core] eax: 00000000 ebx: ca4d3900 ecx: 80a86f3d edx: 00000000 esi: ffffffa1 edi: 80a86f3d ebp: c9368da0 esp: c961fe98 ds: 007b es: 007b ss: 0068 Process femon (pid: 3076, threadinfo=c961e000 task=cbee7ae0) Stack: 00000000 caee3420 cad3daf8 00000000 c117a620 c013bb52 00000000 c124cd94 b7f80bc0 cad3daf8 cb733940 00000001 cb733940 c9368da0 80a86f3d fffffff2 c9368da0 bffff990 ccb186f8 c9368da0 c9368da0 caee3420 cb0e5910 b7f80bc0 Call Trace: [<c013bb52>] do_no_page+0x27f/0x2bf [<ccb186f8>] dvb_usercopy+0x99/0xf3 [dvb_core] [<c0112946>] do_page_fault+0x187/0x4ce [<c014e34c>] chrdev_open+0x160/0x176 [<c01467d6>] dentry_open+0x11e/0x1e8 [<c01466b2>] filp_open+0x36/0x3c [<ccb182a5>] dvb_generic_ioctl+0x2f/0x38 [dvb_core] [<ccb1eacd>] dvb_frontend_ioctl+0x0/0x4a3 [dvb_core] [<c0155c37>] sys_ioctl+0x1e0/0x1fd [<c0102b57>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb Code: 00 83 3d 90 a3 b2 cc 00 8b 58 28 8b 43 0c 89 04 24 74 11 68 aa 17 b2 cc 68 45 1b b2 cc e8 a7 9e 5f f3 58 5a 85 db 74 0c 8b 14 24 <83> ba ec 01 00 00 00 74 0a b8 ed ff ff ff e9 42 04 00 00 8b 44" The application I started here was 'femon', as you can see. 'femon' itself gives me a segfault. If you need more verbose output, please tell me. Bye, Martin Cap.
