Hi, try to disable ACPI. Yersterday i did some testing with different kernel options (ACPI, APIC ...) and encountered some strange problems using APIC and/or ACPI on my Athlon machine. With APIC enabled it was impossible to shutdown the X-Server (it crashed during shutdown), and with ACPI enabled the DVB-Driver doesn't tune. I'm using an Athlon XP 2000 on MSI K7T266Pro2 (VIA KT266A). Without both options (Kernel 2.4.20-rc2 from kernel.org) it works really nice.

(well buggy software, but once I got it up, channel switch on a encrypted channel takes about 3-4 seconds). So how can I continue the debugging and fault finding? Any suggestion on which files to concentrate on, is there any documentation of the project files? Can anyone recommend a easy to use diff util? - Micael MB> OK, so now I have tried my old computer (P3@910) and on this one, with MB> an old driver (dated 20021017) on the computer, I get tuning, (not MB> super fast, mind you), and there's no outcommand error 1 in the log.
