I seem to have fixed the problem for now. It's the hoary old problem of Mythtv's backend coming up and accessing the cards before the firmware has loaded onto the cards. Adding in a startup delay to myth-backend's init script has solved the problem, for now. The firmware seems to load now on Mythbuntu 10.04 without a problem. Is there some way to put a lock in the driver or even speed up the process of loading the firmware with some command line arguments when the saa7134 driver is loaded? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
