Bug Description

Bug is with the v4l/dvb subsystem, saa7164 driver. I am using Mythbuntu 10.04 and have linux-firmware-nonfree from:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware-nonfree/+bug/579783

I have been happily using Mythbuntu with a Hauppauge hvr-2200 dual tuner DVB-T for many months (thanks Steven Toth!) and it records all my TV in MythTV.

NZ has three DVB-T multiplexes, so I bought a second single-tuner DVB-T card, a Hauppauge hvr-1110, to cover the third multiplex and mean that, with multirec, I can record all channels and never hit a conflict.

As I say, the hvr-2200 works really well. When I put the hvr-1110 in (and install the non-free firmware linked above), the hvr-1110 registers as an adapter and plays TV well as well.

Unfortunately, when I have both cards in with their firmware, the hvr-1110 stops the hvr-2220 registering its two adapters. Dmesg is attached. I have now (before reporting the bug) removed the hvr-1110 so that I am back to my working dual-tuner hvr-2200 configuration.

Interestingly to me, when I only have the hvr-2200 firmware installed, but with both cards in the machine, all three adapters register (create /dev/dvb/ nodes), but clearly only the hvr-2200 adapters actually work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I saw some things in dmesg about IRQ conflicts, but I really have no idea.

Hi Aaron,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
