[linux-dvb] KNC-1 DVB-T + Cineview + Conax cam == ERROR

[Niels Drost]

Hello,

I've recently bought a KNC-1 DVB-T card, a Cineview module and a Conax
CAM. And the CAM doesn't work :( I've turned on some debug output, and I
get the following when I insert it:

-----

With some further digging in the dvb_ca_en50221.c file (and some extra
debugging statements) I found the error actually occurs on line 669,
when the read_data function finds out the cam module reported a
read-error:

 /* check for read error (RE should now be 0) */
if ((status = ca->pub->read_cam_control(ca->pub, slot, CTRLIF_STATUS)) <
0)
	goto exit;
if (status & STATUSREG_RE) {
	ca->slot_info[slot].slot_state = DVB_CA_SLOTSTATE_LINKINIT;
        status = -EIO;
        goto exit; <<-- exits from function here...
}


And that ended my search. Any idea how I can find out what actually
happens?


Cheers,
