Bugs in DVB-S Prof-Tuner 8000 driver (idle & suspend)

[Wojciech Myrda]

Hi,

I am using these new driver http://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/14300/
for my card. It generally works great allowing me to send DiseqC
commands, tune to LNBs etc but only as long as I do not use idle or
suspend with it which in first circumstance leads to kernel panics for
which I acquired number of pictures http://bigvo.dyndns.org/dvb/cx23885/
and in second requires reloading the driver to work properly

More info here: http://bigvo.dyndns.org/dvb/

If anyone is willing to take time and effort to improve the code for the
driver I would greatly appreciate it and I am willing to test it

hi guys,

I tried to use my Prof card once again now that 3.7 kernel reached rc-5
to find my system crash after something about 2 hours of testing the
card. This time for a change I did notice that first after I made number
of tunnings to different channels few minutes before the crash I was not
able to tune to in to any frequency.

My system without the card did work for a month with no problem
therefore the problem is definetly with the card or the way the in
kernel driver for it works. Please take a look at the error and let me
know if there is any thing I can do to get rid of this problem :(
