Driver problem... weird.



Hi.

I recently discovered that I could not use VDR to record on disk anymore.
However, the problem is not with VDR and the new driver.

Apparently, *any* disk activity will interfere with the DVB card and it will
start corrupting the video & audio output (which goes to the tV set). The
more activity- the more corruption happens.

I don't need to be recording to have this happen. I just tune to a channel,
then issue a "du /" on the other console and the show starts :-((

I tried changing irqs, dma settings for the disk and so forth, but no luck.

One thing that could have happened is that I changed main board (an old VH
chipset running a K6-233). Was working before with an HX and a P100. Are
there any known troubles with chipsets?

Any other hints or solutions to try before I dissect that PC?

Thank you all,
Plamen
