| |
Hi,
I'm seeing total system freezes (no response to Alt+SysRq) when starting xawtv with the videodev, bttv modules still loaded. If I wait long enough (so that the modules get automatically unloaded) or if I manually unload them I have no problems. When the system freezes I get the following message (copied by hand):
v4l: oops: got sigalarm ioctl VIDIOCSYNC: Interrupt system call
Is this a known issue? Any advice?
I'm running: kernel 2.2.12 SMP xawtv-2.46 (compiled in this box)
/etc/conf.modules: alias char-major-81 bttv options bttv card=11 post-install bttv modprobe -k tuner type=8
(I found this settings to work OK with my card- ixTV from ixmicro)
Thanks for any help,
Rui Sousa
P.S: I previously send this to the video4linux list wich seems to be dead.
