Crash trying to run Zapping TV viewer

[Jaakan Shorter]

Binary package hint: zapping

I just went to app > sound & Video > Zapping TV viewer.
and it crashed trying to load.

I have a WinTV-D ( BT878 based ) NTSC/ATSC tuner.
which works, just NTSC OTA/Cable and not the ATSC part, with KnoppMyth.

x64 version of edgy is install on my AMD64

I'd see a windows for Zapping with a window over that saying
"Cannot start video overlay zapping_setup_fb failed"
then the bug report tool would pop up.

here is my crash report

[Jaakan Shorter (jaakanshorter)]

output from dmesg after a reboot and zapping crashing

Same here, use a hauppauge wintv pci go2 with conexant chip.

sudo pico /etc/modprobe.d/tvcard

insert this two lines:

options cx88xx card=1 tuner=56 radio=1
tda9887 debug=0

and to load them auto

sudo pico /etc/modules

insert this two lines:

tda9887
cx88xx

So here comes some attachements:
1. the zapping crash (dbgsym installed)

heres my dmesg:

[Thomas Schmid (schmid-thomas)]

and here's the message if i try to run zapping_setup_fb and zapping_setup_fb -vv

Same over here on Ubuntu Edgy. Might have something to do with the ati commercial drivers I have installed.

Thanks in advance.
