I have a DVB-S card which is recognized like this when loading the driver: saa7146: register extension 'dvb'. PCI: Found IRQ 12 for device 0000:00:09.0 saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem d107e000 (revision 1, irq 12) (0x13c2,0x1002).

I use DVB driver from standard Debian latest kernel in current sid, I didn't compile anything in it myself.

I remember that in April 2005 I used this card with the kernel that was in Debian GNU/Linux sid then, the same way that I try now, and then it worked. So I think some bug was introduced since April, or I must have messed up something (the system was completely reinstalled since then, it was even a different motherboard, CPU, RAM, video card and monitor), but anyway, what is the problem? I also tried the older firmware, latest which was there in April 2005, that I used then: http://www.linuxtv.org/download/dvb/firmware/dvb-ttpci-01.fw-261d but the only difference is that there is only a much shorter, one line error message, and only in kern.log, does not appear on the screen. It is like this: Sep 21 21:01:20 localhost kernel: av7110_wait_msgstate: timeout waiting for MSGSTATE 0040 But maybe the difference is because I didn't reload driver after reboot, or something. I rebooted after changing firmware in /lib/firmware/ -- Miernik _________________________ xmpp:miernik@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ___________________/_______________________/ mailto:miernik@xxxxxxxx Save Europe from Software Patents http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/savingeurope.html
