Hello Max, In order to reduce the number of variables in hand, I would like to ask you please to proceed with testing in the following way (this will take you as close as my config as possible, and being my machine also 64bit, things may become easier to analyze): - Use kernel 2.4 - Get the kernel driver from CVS (dvb-kernel), not the simple driver (DVB) - go into the dvb-kernel/build2.4 do a getlinks and make ... I suggest we go on from there... what say you?

And yes, the card works flawlessly on Athlon XP, Windows2000, Hauppauge Drivers. So we can go on with debugging ;) Just tell me what you need to know and i'll gather the information greetings /max Am Di, den 10.02.2004 schrieb Johannes Stezenbach um 20:50: > On Tue, Feb 10, 2004 at 07:45:28PM +0100, Max Nickel wrote: > > On Tue, 2004-02-10 at 18:48, Johannes Stezenbach wrote: > > > > > > OK, loading DPRAM works, booting the ARM works (the DRAM loader runs > > > from DPRAM), loading DRAM seems to work but the firmware in DRAM > > > is trashed.
