Hi,
hi
can you send me a picture of your card and further info for inclusion
to my
http://www.bttv-gallery.de ?
no, my friend owns the card and will return it to the shop since it
hangs up at least debian 2.6 or vanilla kernel installed pcs, cause she
cant only use distro kernels at this time.
get pictures from worlddvb.com or dexatek.com, pls.
1st priority:
- picture of the card, the card backside (high resolution pics if
feasible)
no. 1st prio is to remove the deadlock on boot in bttv with this card
plugged in until 2.6.18 release kernels and next debian sarge 2.6.8
release which makes linux installations and dual boot xp/linux unusable.
i will try this today -blindly- by adding the unknown pci id to hg head
below.
analysis: no go. more device config info needed or it would crash the dvb-bt8xx and
bttv driver possibly elsewhere and no frontend driver for the sharp tuner available,
anyway.
recommend blacklisting these cards in hotplug to keep standard distros
working (avoid bttv deadlock on boot) until enough device info is availlable to get it on.
i recommend all linux(/xp dual boot) users who want to plug this card in
even for use on windows only to add
"alias bttv off" to /etc/modprobe.conf or in an extra file
/etc/modprobe.d/dvb or better blacklist the pci id in hotplug in between
to get linux to boot again as emergency measure, *before* you plugin
this card.

%Fdo.DeviceDesc0% = VideoSection, PCI\VEN_109E&DEV_036E&SUBSYS_20010000
%Fdo.DeviceDesc1% = AudioSection, PCI\VEN_109E&DEV_0878&SUBSYS_20010000
bttv boot message before lock-up confirms this is correct.
further information:
- pictures of remote control and of original package (if feasible)
its the big remote control version (worlddvb.com).
- dmesg when loading the driver
not possible since it deadlocks kernel at boot.
see my both threads on the linux-dvb list.
- all *.INF from the Windows driver CD
