Hi all,
An interesting feature has came up with kernel 2.6.14 and hauppauge Nova-T (the older model) and the dxr3.
If the computer has been down and started again, modules load up, vdr starts and bang -> the computer seems locked up (even the numlock doesn't light).
This has happened multiple times already (and will happen if there's a power loss).
I've noticed that if the computer is left on for about 10 minutes, miraculously, everything start working again.
I've tried to start vdr with a plain 'vdr' command, and still, the computer will freeze (hauppauge drivers and dxr3's kernel modules were previously loaded though).
Not sure what causes this, but in case somebody stumbles into this, just wait for recovery :-)
BR, Jarmo
Could also be a problem with shared interrupts and an old dxr3 driver. What version are you using? Post the output of "cat /proc/interrupts".
