I am using debian sid and attempts to load the cx23885 module fail:
in dmesg:
cx23885: Unknown parameter `car'
(I use the card=4 option.)
The device:
02:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Device 8852 (rev 02)
Subsystem: DViCO Corporation Device d618
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 10
Memory at fbc00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M]
Capabilities: [40] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [80] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [90] Vital Product Data <?>
Capabilities: [a0] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+
Queue=0/0 Enable-
Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting <?>
Capabilities: [200] Virtual Channel <?>
Kernel modules: cx23885
kernel version:
2.6.26-1-amd64
Note that this module came with the debian package:
linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 2.6.26-3
1. Am I right that this is not supposed to happen? May I conclude
that the packaged module is incompatible with the kernel it is packaged for?
If so, I can report this bug to Debian; but I want to make sure I have the
concepts straight before they shoot me down saying it is linuxtv.org's fault.
2. I tried recompiling the module(s) using sources from linuxtv.org. I used
http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb but the created modules still reported unknown
symbols:
cx23885: disagrees about version of symbol videobuf_streamoff
cx23885: Unknown symbol videobuf_streamoff
There are actually various other mercurial repos hosted on linuxtv.org, which
one should I try next?
Thanks in advance!
