[linux-dvb] DVICO Dual Digital 4 DVB-T Revision2 : Strange Remote Control Issue

[drappa]

Hi All

I have one of these cards running perfectly in a current Mythbuntu 8.10 
system.
Yesterday, I needed to run it under MS VISTA in a dual boot system for some 
testing.
The VISTA installation proved problematical but the main issue is that the 
IR Remote will no longer function under VISTA.
I tried rolling back to previous versions of the DVICO drivers but still 
nothing.
Booted back into Mythbuntu and the remote was fine.
I'm at a loss to understand why. Is anything written to firmware when the 
card is installed in a Linux system?

Regards
Drappa

I had an earlier model Dvico Dual Tuner with similar problems when I first tried to make it work (linux drivers were not part of the kernel at that stage).  It would work in windows, but had problems in linux.  To resolve the firmware issue I removed the power cord from my pc and left it overnight.  Leaving the power cord attached was not good enough.  That seemed to clear any firmware on the card.  Next time I used it linux told me it detected the card "cold" and loaded firmware.  I think windows did the same thing.  If it didn't, I removed and reinstalled the windows drivers.

Simply rebooting the pc did not work either.
