Hi, do you use the drivers which are included in the kernel or did you use the latest sources from linuxtv.org? Markus On 5/12/07, ben handley <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi, I have a freecom usb dvt-t device, which works fine with a non-smp kernel (using the dvb-usb-dtt200u driver). But with an smp kernel, on my dual core athlon cpu (i386 mode, haven't tried a 64 bit install yet), I get frequent problems. Usually I just lose all reception, and can only get it back by rebooting. Sometimes stranger things happen, like the keyboard stopping working. The problems only ever occur while using the device. Is the dvb-usb-dtt200u driver known to not be smp safe? Here's a sample of what tends to get dumped to the console around the time things go wrong. Anythink else I can provide to help diagnose? Thanks a lot, Ben dvb-usb: WideView WT-220U PenType Receiver (Typhoon/Freecom) successfully deinitialized and disconnected.
