Hi,

using my DVB-S card I face the following problem:
During boot up my dvb driver is loaded and everything seems to be just
fine.
Afterwards I can't use it because /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 doesn't deliver
anything at all. No wonder using xine or vdr doesn't work.
Doing just a reboot everything just works like a charm (I use this
"feature"
for over three month now and it is always acting like this....)

Here's my setup:
I'm using kernel 2.6.2rc (now - before I used various 2.6.0pre kernels,
2.6.0
and 2.6.1) and the included dvb drivers.
Loading the modules produces the following dmesg (on first startup and on
reboot):

saa7146: register extension 'budget_ci dvb'.
PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:0c.0 (0004 -> 0006)
saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem e191f000 (revision 1, irq 11) (0x13c2,0x100f).
DVB: registering new adapter (TT-Budget/WinTV-NOVA-CI PCI).
TT-Budget/WinTV-NOVA-CI PCI adapter 0 has MAC addr = 00:d0:5c:20:d8:42
probe_tuner: try to attach to TT-Budget/WinTV-NOVA-CI PCI
drivers/media/dvb/frontends/stv0299.c: setup for tuner SU1278/SH
DVB: registering frontend 0:0 (STV0299/TSA5059/SL1935 based)...

lspci reports my card as:
00:0c.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01)
      Subsystem: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH: Unknown device 100f
      Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11
      Memory at d4000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512]

It is a Hauppauge Nova-S (budget) card.

Could anyone point me to the underlying problem? I could also accept
some kind of reinitialization (instead of a reboot).

Kind regards,

Stephan

 Hallo Stephan,

seit ich mich einen neuen Rechner erlaubt habe treffe ich das gleiche
Problem.

Statt Neustarten mache ich "unload and load" von DVB-Treibern, manchmal
sogar mehrmals. Ich bin an der Idee gekommen, dass die Ursache die meine
Kombination von Hardware und Kernel ist. Sie ist:

 - i845Gx(VGA-onboard)
 - LAN onboard
 - SOUND onboard
 - AMI-BIOS (MSI-MB)
 - P IV 2.4GHz, FSB533

 - Kernel 2.4.22, 2.4.24
 - DVB-drivers - die letzte von www.linuxtv.org
 - OS - SuSE Linux 8.2

 Es ist etwas bestimmt mit Linux verbindet(Kernel oder DVB-driver), weil mit
W$N alles läuft problemlos.

 Um eine laufende Kombination zu entdecken, habe ich alle mögliche
BIOS-Einstellungskombinationen ausprobiert, bis jetzt ohne Erfolg.

 Was für ein Rechner hast du?

 Mit freundlichen Grüßen: Ivan




Hi,

I have the same problem with a Satelco Budget card as second card, but it uses also
the stv0299 driver. Only a reboot helps. I'm using Kernel 2.6.2-rc1 with  the latest
dvb-kernel from cvs.
Is there a way to show the registers of the card after initialization?

Best regards
Reiner Wenke
