This problem still exists in Linux 3.13.0-32-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 7 11:32:12 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
For the record, the symptom that drew me here was the failure to create a /dev/dvb device. I do not know if the IR device was working. It does appear to be motherboard related. I have two HVR4000s working in another machine. A third one worked in yet another machine. On two identical, but newer motherboards the third one fails intermittently. For the record, the actual structure of the suggested option file is: $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/cx88xx.conf options cx88xx i2c_debug=1 options cx88xx i2c_scan=1 The debug option may be omitted. Logs can be posted if required, but I suspect a bug with this longevity, affecting obsolete hardware and with only two subscribers is probably best abandoned. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/836062 Title: [media/video] cx88xx HVR-1300,HVR-3000, HVR-4000 tveeprom: Huh, no eeprom present To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/836062/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
