This is my fault, sorry. I did this change with the ..46 and eeprom boot
in mind and i was not aware that there are higher firmware revisions
for the 45 around.
Please try the following in the CVS version:
In file tda1004x.c, function tda1004x_check_upload_ok you will
find the following code fragment from line 352
> if (data1 != 0x67 || data2 < 0x20 || data2 > 0x2a) {
> printk(KERN_INFO "tda1004x: found firmware revision %x -- invalid\n", data2);
> return -EIO;
> }
> printk(KERN_INFO "tda1004x: found firmware revision %x -- ok\n", data2);
please change the limit to a sufficiently higer value:
> if (data1 != 0x67 || data2 < 0x20 || data2 > 0x2e) {
and try again. Please inform me about the result. Can you please also
inform me about the exact name and brand of the tuner module (the metal box)
of your card?
Best regards
Hartmut
