system hangs when loading b2c2-flexcop-pci.ko
Hello,
Steps to reproduce with dmesg output:
# echo "7 4 1 7" > /proc/sys/kernel/printk # modprobe b2c2-flexcop b2c2-flexcop: B2C2 FlexcopII/II(b)/III digital TV receiver chip loaded successfully # insmod b2c2-flexcop-pci.ko debug=0x1f flexcop-pci: will use the HW PID filter flexcop-pci: card revision 2 b2c2_flexcop_pci 0000:04:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21 new wr: 208: 00000000 new wr: 210: c259b2ff
Then it hangs and I have to reset the machine.
This seems to be the beginning of the communication with the Flexcop chip. The commands are executed in flexcop_reset().
System:
DVB PCI card: TechniSat DIGITAL SkyStar 2 Rev. 2.8B with Chip FLEXCOP IIB
Is there a difference between Rev. 2.8 and 2.8B? Only 2.8 is referenced in the sources.
Mainboard: D945GCLF2 with Intel Atom 330
OS: Gentoo Linux 64-Bit
Kernel: Linus' git tree (after 2.6.33-rc3), but it didn't work at my
first try, which is some time ago, with a Gentoo Kernel based on the stable 2.6.27.12.
