Hi, I'm running a "budget-only" (Technotrend S-1401) vdr system (1.5.13) with xinelibouput plugin (latest cvs checkout). It's based on debian sid and it runs fine with kernel 2.6.23.14 ... up to kernel 2.6.24-rc5. After that version, my budget card system stops working ... here some log file stuff: lspci: 04:05.0 Multimedia controller [0480]: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 [1131:7146] (rev 01) Subsystem: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH DVB S-1401 [13c2:1018] Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 17 Memory at fdbfe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512] Kernel driver in use: budget dvb Kernel modules: budget lsmod (working config with kernel 2.6.23.14): Module Size Used by nvidia 7806080 24 lnbp21 2048 1 tda826x 3204 1 tda10086 8452 1 budget 10756 17 budget_core 8452 1 budget saa7146 14472 2 budget,budget_core ttpci_eeprom 2304 1 budget_core dvb_core 65320 2 budget,budget_core nfs 106220 1 lockd 54408 2 nfs sunrpc 137756 5 nfs,lockd snd_hda_intel 253468 4 snd_pcm_oss 32672 0 snd_mixer_oss 12800 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 54660 3 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 16644 2 snd_pcm snd 39012 11 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 5984 1 snd evdev 7040 0 snd_page_alloc 7432 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm lsmod (not working config with plain vanilla kernel 2.6.24): Module Size Used by nvidia 7806080 24 lnbp21 1920 1 tda826x 3204 1 tda10086 8452 1 budget 10628 9 budget_core 8324 1 budget saa7146 14344 2 budget,budget_core ttpci_eeprom 2304 1 budget_core dvb_core 64288 2 budget,budget_core nfs 106220 1 lockd 54408 2 nfs sunrpc 137756 5 nfs,lockd snd_hda_intel 253468 1 snd_pcm_oss 32672 0 snd_mixer_oss 12800 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 54660 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 16644 1 snd_pcm snd 39012 7 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer evdev 7040 0 soundcore 5984 1 snd snd_page_alloc 7432 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm syslog excerpt: [...] Jan 31 20:42:32 vdr kernel: saa7146: register extension 'budget dvb'.
