Problems with cx88

Hi,

I have problems with my Hauppauge Nova-S Card. It works mostly but i have problems when watching Live-TV on a MythTV Client. The Errors ind the Backends Syslog are as follows:

When i reload the driver and just use my budget-card everything works fine, so i really need a solition for this.
The card worked without problems before upgrading to Ubuntu Hardy/8.04

The problem occurs with the default Ubuntu drivers and also with newes CVS drivers.

Regards,
Dennis

Dennis,
Im not certain what your card is, but my hvr-3000 uses the same modules. It seems in a bid to fix some
bug or other, hardy has its own cx88 module among others, and even if you build your own, it uses its own, which seems
to be broken for DVB-S. The solution so far is to delete its copy and build your own...

Hope it helps, but anyone with more experience should probably chip in here esp if i have it all wrong

(Optional) Remove modules from *buntu 8.04

This step is only required if you are running an Ubuntu variant, after one of their bug fixes duplicated the modules being run. This also may be useful to anyone who gets dmesg errors like : cx88xx: disagrees about version of symbol (videobuf_dma_free)

# rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/media/cx88
# rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/media/saa7134
# depmod -a
