Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-media-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: I have a MythTV box with 3 tuners: 2 USB and one PCI. One or more of the tuners' drivers keeps spamming syslog with the following (taken from the Logwatch summary): lgdt330x: i2c_read_demod_bytes: addr 0x0e select 0x58 error (ret == -71) ...: 278497 Time(s) lgdt330x: i2c_read_demod_bytes: addr 0x0e select 0x6e error (ret == -71) ...: 410252 Time(s) lgdt330x: i2c_read_demod_bytes: addr 0x0e select 0x8b error (ret == -71) ...: 1278 Time(s) lgdt330x: i2c_write_demod_bytes error (addr 02 <- 00, ...: 73945 Time(s) lgdt330x: i2c_write_demod_bytes error (addr 4c <- 14, ...: 1281 Time(s) xc2028 1-0061: Error on line 1294: -71 ...: 1234 Time(s) Is there any way to get the drivers to stop spamming syslog, short of recompiling them with the error messages removed?
