Hi all. For the most part this card works and works well. However I find that occasionally if I shut down my machine and bring it back up - the first card has some problems. I get a number 'ivtv0: i2c hardware 0x00000001 (cx2584x) not found for command 0x4008646d!' type messages. The second card always comes up however. I have listed the relevant dmesg portion below. ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== ivtv: version 1.0.0 (2.6.18myth SMP mod_unload K8 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4) loading ivtv0: Autodetected Hauppauge card (cx23416 based) ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKA] enabled at IRQ 19 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:08.0[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 209 ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes) ivtv0: Encoder revision: 0x02060039 tveeprom 2-0050: Hauppauge model 23559, rev E696, serial# 10025978 tveeprom 2-0050: tuner model is Samsung TCPG 6121P30A (idx 96, type 73) tveeprom 2-0050: TV standards PAL(B/G) PAL(I) SECAM(L/L') PAL(D/D1/K) (eeprom 0x74) tveeprom 2-0050: second tuner model is Philips TEA5768HL FM Radio (idx 101, type 62) tveeprom 2-0050: audio processor is CX25843 (idx 37) tveeprom 2-0050: decoder processor is CX25843 (idx 30) tveeprom 2-0050: has radio, has no IR receiver, has no IR transmitter ivtv0: Autodetected WinTV PVR 500 (unit #1) tuner 2-0043: chip found @ 0x86 (ivtv i2c driver #0) tda9887 2-0043: tda988[5/6/7] found @ 0x43 (tuner) tuner 2-0060: TEA5767 detected. tuner 2-0060: chip found @ 0xc0 (ivtv i2c driver #0) tuner 2-0060: type set to 62 (Philips TEA5767HN FM Radio) tuner 2-0061: chip found @ 0xc2 (ivtv i2c driver #0) wm8775 2-001b: chip found @ 0x36 (ivtv i2c driver #0) tuner 2-0061: type set to 73 (Samsung TCPG 6121P30A) ivtv0: i2c hardware 0x00000001 (cx2584x) not found for command 0xc008561c! ivtv0: i2c addr 0x44 not found for command 0x4008646f! ivtv0: i2c hardware 0x00000001 (cx2584x) not found for command 0x4008646d! ivtv0: i2c hardware 0x00000001 (cx2584x) not found for command 0xc008561c! ivtv0: i2c hardware 0x00000001 (cx2584x) not found for command 0xc008561c! ivtv0: i2c hardware 0x00000001 (cx2584x) not found for command 0xc008561c! ivtv0: Registered device video0 for encoder MPEG (4 MB) ivtv0: Registered device video32 for encoder YUV (2 MB) ivtv0: Registered device vbi0 for encoder VBI (1 MB) ivtv0: Registered device video24 for encoder PCM audio (1 MB) ivtv0: Registered device radio0 for encoder radio ivtv0: Initialized WinTV PVR 500 (unit #1), card #0 ivtv: ====================== NEXT CARD ====================== ivtv1: Autodetected Hauppauge card (cx23416 based) ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKB] enabled at IRQ 18 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:09.0[A] -> Link [LNKB] -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 217 ivtv1: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes) ivtv1: Encoder revision: 0x02060039 tuner 3-0043: chip found @ 0x86 (ivtv i2c driver #1) tda9887 3-0043: tda988[5/6/7] found @ 0x43 (tuner) tuner 3-0061: chip found @ 0xc2 (ivtv i2c driver #1) cx25840 3-0044: cx25843-24 found @ 0x88 (ivtv i2c driver #1) cx25840 3-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes) wm8775 3-001b: chip found @ 0x36 (ivtv i2c driver #1) tveeprom 3-0050: Hauppauge model 23559, rev E696, serial# 10025978 tveeprom 3-0050: tuner model is Samsung TCPG 6121P30A (idx 96, type 73) tveeprom 3-0050: TV standards PAL(B/G) PAL(I) SECAM(L/L') PAL(D/D1/K) (eeprom 0x74) tveeprom 3-0050: second tuner model is Philips TEA5768HL FM Radio (idx 101, type 62) tveeprom 3-0050: audio processor is CX25843 (idx 37) tveeprom 3-0050: decoder processor is CX25843 (idx 30) tveeprom 3-0050: has radio, has no IR receiver, has no IR transmitter ivtv1: Correcting tveeprom data: no radio present on second unit ivtv1: Autodetected WinTV PVR 500 (unit #2) tuner 3-0061: type set to 73 (Samsung TCPG 6121P30A) ivtv1: Registered device video1 for encoder MPEG (4 MB) ivtv1: Registered device video33 for encoder YUV (2 MB) ivtv1: Registered device vbi1 for encoder VBI (1 MB) ivtv1: Registered device video25 for encoder PCM audio (1 MB) ivtv1: Initialized WinTV PVR 500 (unit #2), card #1 ivtv: ==================== END INIT IVTV ==================== lsmod shows the following (cut) dvb_bt8xx 19972 0 dvb_core 77992 1 dvb_bt8xx dvb_pll 17796 1 dvb_bt8xx bt878 14728 1 dvb_bt8xx bttv 176820 2 dvb_bt8xx,bt878 video_buf 27012 1 bttv ir_common 38020 1 bttv compat_ioctl32 5376 1 bttv btcx_risc 8712 1 bttv wm8775 9996 0 cx25840 27408 0 tuner 61224 0 ivtv 121616 0 i2c_algo_bit 12680 2 bttv,ivtv cx2341x 14852 1 ivtv tveeprom 18448 2 bttv,ivtv videodev 28672 2 bttv,ivtv v4l2_common 20352 7 bttv,wm8775,cx25840,tuner,ivtv,cx2341x,videodev v4l1_compat 16004 3 bttv,ivtv,videodev i2c_nforce2 11392 0 i2c_core 24448 10 dvb_bt8xx,dvb_pll,bttv,wm8775,cx25840,tuner,ivtv,i2c_algo_bit,tveeprom,i2c_nforce2 And I see that wm8775 and cx25840 are loaded so I am guessing it`s not a driver problem. Unfortunately the only way I can get the first card back is to shut the machine down over night and boot the next day. I have nothing added to my modprobe.conf and am running a centos based distro with a 2.6.18 kernel. I see the same problems using either IVTV drivers and V4l drivers. Can anyone offer any clues?
