Re: Issues with Empire Dual Pen: request for help and suggestions!!!
When you want we can check the audio issue. Consider that actually I've installed the latest main v4l-dvb (to test if all the patches have been ported to themain tree) and it's ok. However I have no problem to install your tree driver again to test whatever is needed to have a fully functional device. Xwang PS the device has also a s-video (9 pin) input. In case I can test it, but I prefer to do that after the analog audio isssue has been solved Douglas Schilling Landgraf ha scritto: Hello Xwang, On Wed, 12 Aug 2009 00:51:13 +0200 xwang1...@email.it wrote: I've used the rewrite_eeprom_v_1_4 which you send me 5 month ago when the eprom got corrupted for the first time. Great, now it's available at v4l-dvb tree. Anyway, now we need to check the audio issue. Thanks!

Douglas, in a few minutes I am leaving town for the next five days. Can you help Xwang out to restore his eeprom content using your tool? Sure Devin.

I remember that the audio of analog tv has started to work with Markus' drivers when he added the em28xx-audioep driver because, if I have correctly understood, my device has a noy standard audio. Is it possible to import the necessary code in the main branch so that to have the device fully functional (today it is unusable to see analog tv because no audio is present). Thank you to all, Xwang The dmesg output suggests your device has an EMP202 on the em28xx ac97 port, which is pretty standard and should be supported by the em28xx current audio driver. I would have to look closer to better understand why your audio is not working. Devin -- Devin J.

Open up em28xx-dvb.c, and move the following: case EM2880_BOARD_EMPIRE_DUAL_TV: from line 402 to line 492.

Re: Issues with Empire Dual Pen: request for help and suggestions!!!
Ok, I've made the change and now the digital tv works perfectly. So now I should test the analog tv, but I fear to have another kernel panic. Is there something I can do before testing so that to be sure that at least all the file system are in a safety condition even if a kernel panic happens. I'm wondering if it is the case, for example, to umount them and remount in read only mode so that if I have to turn off the pc, nothing can be corrupted (is it so?). What do you suggest? In case, how can I temporarly umount and remout the file systems in read only mode? Should I use alt+sys+S followed by alt+sys+U? Can I use such commands while I'm in KDE? Thank you, Xwang Douglas Schilling Landgraf ha scritto: Hello Xwang, Could you please try the bellow suggestion? If you want I can make this change in my development tree and you can test from there.

Thank you, Xwang Glad to hear it's working now. I will add the patch and issue a PULL request to get it into the mainline (I had to do this already for several other boards). Regarding your concerns on panic, as long as you have a modern filesystem like ext3, and you don't have alot of applications running which are doing writes, a panic is a pretty safe event. I panic my machine many times a week and never have any problems. Cheers, Devin -- Devin J.
