It doesn't look like you are doing anything that would trigger it, so I doubt that's the problem. But, the driver seems to be having problems allocating memory, and there is a known memory leak in the driver you are using, so it's probably worth getting the latest version from Hg. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
