[linux-dvb] cx88_wakeup 3 buffers handled (should be 1)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I get this message and think my DVB is sharing IRQ11.

I know that if I try and 'rmmod cx88-dvb' I get an alarm 'IRQ11 disabled' 
and my keyboard no longer works!!
