Guys,
I have upgraded my system to the new Ubuntu (8.04 Hardy), using 2.6.24,
64-bit.
And the disconnects are back.
I was using a rather ancient v4l-dvb tree, so I grabbed a new one, and
saw no improvement.
It may be very well linked to the remote, I was recording anything when
this one struck, just using the remote.
I may even have been tuned on the neighbouring cx88 DVB-S card.

http://www.youplala.net/~will/htpc/disconnects/
The system is described there:
http://www.youplala.net/linux/home-theater-pc
I have
options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=1
options options usbcore autosuspend=-1
in /etc/modprobe.d/options
I remain available for any testing and documenting this new step back.
Nico
hopes that the F1 Grand Prix will be recorded tonight :o/

Hi Nico, did you apply my patch? If so could you please try it with a clean unpatched tree? I'd like to know if this is someway related to my patch or to dib0700_rc_setup calls. BTW, I'm evaluating too an early switch from gusty to hardy, did you experienced any problem? Is it usable? I've heard something about libc6 failures.. has it been fixed?

I'll give it a try. > BTW, I'm evaluating too an early switch from gusty to hardy, did you > experienced any problem? None, it went nicely, as usual, the package management system is nice, as well as the processes around it. Just be aware that the kernel upgrade will make your nova-t-500 unstable like mine. But if you are willing to look into the code, go ahead! > Is it usable? Very as a mythtv system. For a desktop, I would wait a bit more, FF3 is not there yet, Compiz sees a lot of breakage too. I have a couple of machines on Hardy. > I've heard something about libc6 > failures.. has it been fixed? A long time ago, that was only a matter of hours until the fix was out.

There was no activity on the tuners (like recording) at the time either (last one had finished 20mn before). I'm not even sure that there was any EIT scanning going on.

This is really a cry for help. I am not a coder, I don't even know where my K&R C book that I bought 17 years ago is anymore, so I cannot dive into the code and pretend to understand it. But I can push, pull, help coordinate, document, hg clone, compile, install, reboot, test, report, publish results on the wiki, and more if needed. That card was nearly working 100%, then something broke, and we are back to the status we had 1 year ago. Please, please, please...

I used to run my mythbox on an AMD64 in 64bit on a Nforce 4, but I switched to a 32bit P4. This was because my workaround nova-td stick didn´t work with the USB controllers on the nforce board and I needed the PCI slots, I very quickly switched from the TD to the Nova-t 500 to test the streaming patch and it has worked since. On my 64Bit machine I had problems with disconnects on the TD also. Is there any differences in disconnects in 64 vs 32 bit systems? Unfortunatly my 2,6GHz P4 is to slow, or barely coping to be able to handle the nice 2x deinterlacing so all is not well here either. /Henrik [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 678 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 150 bytes --] _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 45+ messages in thread

I am well aware of those, I am trying to keep the wiki page updated as much as I can (camelreef is me). If you grab a recent tree, all those patches have been merged and you will not need to apply them anymore. There is only last patch on the wiki that gives remote key repeats, but it should get in the main tree soon, Patrick put it in his branch.

Well, fine. What we need here is a developer. What a developer needs is info, without it, he will not be able to help. I've posted logs, now your turn.

Verify if the current tree is stable on 2.6.22. Verify if it breaks with a newer kernel, then check for changes in the changelog regarding usb. Collecting debug info about the disconnects is probably very good, let´s hope someone takes pity on us. I had problems until my recent config, at the same moment it was stable I stopped tinkering and haven´t dared to upgrade anything since. My bet is that the dibcom stuff does something ugly and that there is changes in the kernel usb code (or even config) that makes the problem reappear. /Henrik On Thu, Mar 27, 2008 at 9:05 AM, Nicolas Will <nico@youplala.net> wrote: > > On Wed, 2008-03-26 at 21:17 +0000, Nicolas Will wrote: > > Well, fine. > > > > What we need here is a developer. > > > > What a developer needs is info, without it, he will not be able to > > help. > > > > I've posted logs, now your turn. > > > > Adding the following lines in your /etc/modprobe.d/options would be a > good start: > > options dvb-usb-dib0700 debug=1 > options mt2060 debug=1 > options dibx000_common debug=1 > options dvb_core debug=1 > options dvb_core dvbdev_debug=1 > options dvb_core frontend_debug=1 > options dvb_usb debug=1 > options dib3000mc debug=1 > > Then post the lines of /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages around the > disconnect event. > > Better post them somewhere on a web page or a pastebin. > > Nico > > > _______________________________________________ > linux-dvb mailing list > linux-dvb@linuxtv.org > http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb > [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 2351 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 150 bytes --] _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 45+ messages in thread

It will still collect EIT when you watch/record TV but I find thats sufficient. Before I did this I was getting an awful lot of disconnects, I switched to 2.6.24.3-12.fc8 when I upgraded to myth 0.21, using v4l repo. Now they are fewer and if it does happen then it will recover as soon as the tuners are no longer in use because myth releases them. Eg live tv -> disconnect -> quite live tv -> go back, it works. dmesg shows that the card has been restarted. Beats a script to restart the backend (which I used to use) when it disconnects. Perhaps that information will make someone else's life less painful :) On an somewhat unrelated note, I was wondering about the firmware. Am I right in thinking this is closed-source (from Hauppauge)? Could this mess be caused by the firmware falling over -> device dies -> usb disconnect or other symptoms (like losing a tuner) depending on how the USB layer responds? Not that I have a clue.. Chris. PS I might have got passive/active muddle up, you want the setting that *doesn't* cause the card to be perpetually in use. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 45+ messages in thread

Not that I have a clue.. There is certainly a link with the firmware. Patrick had solved issues by releasing a new version. This is why it is so important that he gets involved as soon as he can find time.

You have another problem. You lose a tuner. I get a card that disconnects completely, I lose both tuners and the remote, and get a flood of mt2060 i2c errors, but after the disconnect.

My signal hovers around 52-64 percent, with a booster. I think my antenna need replacing. My disconnects reduced quite a bit when I turned off the Active EIT setting, although i still get disconnected frequently.

That was exactly my situation before upgrading my system, which brought the new kernel version. Now, with 2.6.24, the disconnects are back with a vengeance, just as it was nearly a year ago. I hope that the logs provided will help shed a light on this. If not, I'm ready to turn debug on on all I can, even if it means generating gigs of logs.

Unless you do, the code will keep compiling (and installing) for the previous kernel, and your new kernel will only use the stock drivers. That would explain why you're seeing disconnects again.

Because I'm desperate, I did a make distclean, a make and a sudo make install. And I rebooted. And the machine is still up with no breakage. Ah... I would have put my kids on the line about what I said I did. But obviously... And I did so many things on the box that the shell history does not go back long enough for me to check. But obviously, there is no need to check. To err is human, but, I was pretty certain. It is normally my usual process. Plus, for the weirdest reasons, I was eager to put myself in supposedly 2.6.24 problems. So I hereby put myself in a position where you can bash me on the head, repeatedly. But thanks all the same for showing me the light!

Crap, I wish it had been so simple. Back to 2.6.24 causing issues.

So it can´t be just the kernel that does it.It must be something more than that. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 45+ messages in thread

The more I look at logs, the more I believe that the i2c errors are not the root of the problem. They are just a consequence of something failing somewhere else.
