Hey all,
I've seen many postings with problems similar to mine, but the solutions never seemed to work for me. I'm running Debian Testing with kernel 2.6.8 on an AMD Athlon XP3000. I am unable to get any sort of signal (other than static) out of my card. When loading the ivtv module I get the messages "ivtv0: Unreasonably low latency timer, setting to 64 (was 32)", and "tuner type not set" (full IVTV dmesg listing below). I've tried tweaking all sorts of setting under /etc/modutils/ivtv but the results are always the same. I thought maybe all I needed to do was `modprobe tuner` (I made sure that /lib/modules/2.6.8/extra/tuner.ko was the only tuner module) but that caused a segfault. I've been working on this for a few days now, and have come up with nothing -- any ideas?


Well, the short answer is that modprobing tuner shouldn't cause a segfault. Why the "extra" directory? I thought ivtv always installed into an "ivtv" directory? Some Debian thing?

ivtv0: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=tda9887, addr=43]
tveeprom: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones
tveeprom: Second (radio) tuner idx 101
tveeprom: ivtv version
tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 23552, rev = D592, serial# = 8221235
tveeprom: tuner = Philips FQ1236A MK4 (idx = 92, type = 57)

tveeprom figures out your card and tuner just fine.

tuner: tuner type not set

But tuner module doesn't like it.
