Hello all Im new to this mailing list :) Im using a gentoo amd64 kernel-2.6.13 system with a Hauppauge DVB-s Nova CI. The driver is working (im using vlc) but I get strange messages in dmesg! dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM detected and initialised successfully general protection fault: 0000 [1] CPU 0 Modules linked in: budget_ci budget_core dvb_core saa7146 ttpci_eeprom stv0299 tda1004x i2c_core usb_storage via_rhine sk98lin Pid: 8434, comm: vlc Not tainted 2.6.13 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8027593b>] <ffffffff8027593b>{__up_read+11} RSP: 0018:ffff81001ad17ea8 EFLAGS: 00210082 RAX: 0000000000000068 RBX: ffff810000000000 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffffc200005fc005 RDI: f000ea21f000ea91 RBP: 0000000000000000 R08: 0000000000000009 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000003 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff810021cc4cc0 R13: 0000000000000001 R14: ffff810038459280 R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 0000000000722500(0063) GS:ffffffff80549800(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 00000000013ae188 CR3: 000000002b50c000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 Process vlc (pid: 8434, threadinfo ffff81001ad16000, task ffff81001ad15900) Stack: 0000000000000000 0000000000200282 ffff810000000000 ffffffff8805c8eb 0000000000000000 0000000000000145 ffff810021cc4cc0 ffff81003845928c 0000000000000000 ffffffff80182479 Call Trace:<ffffffff8805c8eb>{:dvb_core:dvb_ca_en50221_io_poll+187} <ffffffff80182479>{sys_poll+489} <ffffffff80181930>{__pollwait+0} <ffffffff8016f39f>{sys_write+111} <ffffffff8010e8f6>{system_call+126} Code: 8b 07 ff c8 75 5f 48 8b 4f 08 48 8d 47 08 48 39 c1 74 56 c7 RIP <ffffffff8027593b>{__up_read+11} RSP <ffff81001ad17ea8> oom-killer: gfp_mask=0xd0, order=0 This looks very bad to me! the /dev/dvb/adapter0/ca0 is locked now, even if I terminate vlc.
