I recently bought a asus my media U3000 mini as the docs said it was supported.
I plugged it into my ubuntu 7.10 box running 2.6.22-14-generic.
It was not recognized.
I read on the net that the support was fairly new so I downloaded, built and installed the latest v4l-dvb.
I then rebooted and it was recognized

I tested tuning and it worked perfectly (I was very happy at that stage)
--------
ash-fs# tzap -a 5 nine
using '/dev/dvb/adapter5/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter5/demux0'
reading channels from file '/root/.tzap/channels.conf'
tuning to 191625000 Hz
video pid 0x0207, audio pid 0x02d0

-------
However, when I tried to record (open /dev/dvb/adapter5/dvr0 I get
ERROR: failed opening '/dev/dvb/adapter5/dvr0' (Cannot allocate memory)
and dmesg has
[ 1472.071782] allocation failed: out of vmalloc space - use vmalloc=<size> to increase size.
As you can see from the above I already have 5 dvb tuners working perfectly (mostly pci). I bought this new one to setup a DVR box for a friend.
Is the problem because I am trying to have 6 dvb-t tuners ?
Thanks in advance
Andrew
