Hi, 

when accidentally disconnecting the dvb-t receiver, the kernel oopses.

Greg, can you help?
Comment 3 Greg Kroah-Hartman 2006-03-17 17:18:16 UTC
The USB dvb code is fragile and breaks often :(

Gerd, any thoughts?  I don't have the hardware for this, and the dvb project
is developed outside of the USB kernel project, so I have no familarity with
the code...

Comment 4 Gerd Hoffmann 2006-03-20 10:32:54 UTC
Hmm, the oops is in the dvb core code, not the driver.  It's not instantly obvious where the oops comes from.  I suspect the whole dvb subsystem needs a audit to make it survive such an event ...

As no one here has experience with these devices, and they are marked 
unsupported, I really don't know what to do here.  I'll mark this LATER
if that's not a problem for you.
Comment 6 Dirk Mueller 2006-03-23 12:34:59 UTC
well, I reported it against SL where "supported.conf" doesn't have any relevance anyway ;)

I'm fine with it, but I wanted to notice that this used to work just fine.

mass reopening all SuSE Linux bugs that are set to REMIND+LATER to change the resolution to WONTFIX (adapting to new policy)

Closing old LATER+REMIND bugs as WONTFIX - if you still plan to work on it, feel free to reopen and set to ASSIGNED.

In case the report saw repeated reopen comments, it's due to bugzilla timing out on the huge request ;(
