Problem with module bt878
Hi all,
I have a Pinnacle PCTV Pro card which used to work fine (under ubuntu
edgy).
Now I upgraded to ubuntu gutsy and I experience a strange problem.
For the tv, audio/video works fine: I can see/listen using, for example,
xawtv.
The problem is with the FM radio: any software (for example gradio)
starts without complaining but I can't ear anything. Moreover, after
quitting I can't ear anymore from the tv as long I don't
remove and reload the bttv module.
Under edgy, on the other hand, everything is fine (I still have edgy and
it is still fine)
To solve the problem, I looked carefully at the output of dmesg in both
systems and the only relevant difference I can see is the following:
in edgy, when the bt878 module is loaded I get
[17179611.804000] bt878: AUDIO driver version 0.0.0 loaded
[17179611.808000] bt878: Bt878 AUDIO function found (0).
[17179611.808000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:08.1[A] -> Link [LNKA] ->
GSI 5 (level, low) -> IRQ 5
[17179611.808000] bt878(0): Bt878 (rev 17) at 00:08.1, irq: 5, latency:
32, memory: 0xe2001000
In gutsy, at the same place I get
[ 33.648000] bt878: AUDIO driver version 0.0.0 loaded
[ 33.652000] bt878: Bt878 AUDIO function found (0).
[ 33.652000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:08.1[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 5
(level, low) -> IRQ 5
[ 33.652000] bt878_probe: card id=[0x1211bd], Unknown card.
[ 33.652000] Exiting..
[ 33.652000] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:08.1 disabled
[ 33.652000] bt878: probe of 0000:00:08.1 failed with error -22
On the other hand, for bttv the output is the same. Please note that bttv
is loaded with the options
options bttv radio=1 card=52 gbuffers=4
which I put in /etc/modprobe.d/options in both systems
(actually, I am bringing with me these settings since I got the card 4
years ago...)
Thank you for any help
Fabio
