This line is very weird: bt878_probe: card id=[0xffffffff], Unknown card. Maybe your eeprom were damaged somehow. Anyway, the better is if you can do a bissection, identifying what patch broke it. For doing this, the better is to retrieve the last v4l-dvb tree., available at: http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb To retrieve the tree, you will need to have installed 'mercurial' (available at selenic.com/mercurial), and do: hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb At the tree's README.patches, on chapter 8, there are some instructions on how to do the bissection. Thanks for the instructions. I will try bisecting sometime next week. - Mike I compiled v4l-dvb rev 5829 on my Fedora 7 2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 system, and everything works fine now. The stock v4l-dvb associated with 2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 did not work. How do I tell what v4l-dvb rev is associated with the fc7 kernel? - Mike Never mind. Any 5xxx rev seems to work fine. Looks like it is strictly a Fedora problem. Closing this bug. - Mike |
