Hi All,

I have recently upgraded my kernel (Ubuntu HH to 2.6.24-22) and thus had to re-build the v4l-dvb driver to make my HVR4000 card work again (it was working before the kernel upgrade). I hg clone'd the
http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/, then "make && make install"'d it, re-booted and now the machine stalls on boot with error: "BUG: soft lockup CPU#0 (modprobe)".

I have tested again without the v4l-dvb driver and it works fine. My system is below:

2x P4 Xeons
ASUS PCH-DL Mobo
Hauppauge WinTV HVR-4000
Leadtek WinFast DTV1000
Ubuntu Hardy Heron

Any ideas?

Kind Regards,

Alec Christie
