Dear list, I've got a linux 2.6 system which locks up (not respoding to keys, blank display - can't be sure if its a kernel panic) totally about twice a day. I've narrowed the problem either to em8300 driver itself or the vdr-dxr3 driver. Vdr is running nicely without dxr3 plugin and the system is stable more than a day :-) Vdr with the plugin, random lockups appear. Messages-log may say about ring buffer to be full near the lockup time, but not always. em8300 version 0.15.rc4 and vdr-dxr3 version 0.2.3-cvs20050528.tgz (I've tried some earlier versions too). I thought about creating a blank-screen and feeding it (instead of tv-picture) constantly to dxr3 and see if the lockups appear. The sources seem quite complicated, thus help will be appreciated ;-) BR, Jarmo
