Some might remember an earlier post where I had assumed that my pvr250mce tuner was blown (just get static now) and that I needed to get a replacement for it.
Well I was just checking my system logfiles to just see how the system was running and noticed something startling. I'm getting the infamous dmesg log entry: ivtv: Setting Tuner 47 tuner: tuner type not set I don't really understand, now I'm going through my system and trying to figure out why my tuner stopped working all of a sudden. The kernel and tuner.o is the same as it's always been (since september). Also now I can't remember when it went out.. I just remember thinking it had to do with a power outage. I've been updating some stuff from mandrake 10.1, but I can't remember all the things I've updated off it. Maybe one of those updates did it. hmm. Anyways, if the tuner is defective (like fried), would you expect to see static coming back from it? I don't think so, though now I'm sad I didn't notice this earlier. I seem to remember that "tuner not set" is always just a matter of the tuner.o module not being compiled right. In my case I didn't change the kernel at all and somehow my tuner went from working to not set. Hoping someone might have seen something like this before?
