> I have attached a patch which solves the very same problem in a much > better way. Indeed. Much cleaner. I have tested this on a machine which contains an Aver 771 and a TwinHan VisionPlus. Patch was appplied to raw 2.6.11. Before the patch, the Aver loaded, then the VisionPlus, then the kernel hanged (bttv_verbose last said BT878ARESET?). After the patch, both load and scan just fine. Bravo! 2.6.12 badly needs this! I guess the only question now is - Will any future DVB cards use on-board BT8xx audio? -- Nigel Pearson, nigel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx|"Beware - I am a carrier Telstra BI&D, Sydney, Australia | of surrealism" Office: 8255 4222 Fax: 8255 3153 | D A Mobile: 0408 664435 Home: 9792 6998 | L I
