Tv card changes are only valid after a restart
Last modified: 2005-11-01 14:09:57 UTC
When I change the module for my TV card (no matter which module) or configure it the new module isn´t loaded immediately but only after a restart.
Please be a little more verbose. What module do you mean? Are we talking about a YaST-setup? Then please read: http://www.opensuse.org/Bug_Reporting_FAQ#YaST
Besides the y2logs, the output of ``hwinfo --tv'' (as root) would also be helpful.
hwinfo output: r098088:/home/michael # hwinfo --tv 22: PCI 406.0: 11200 TV Card [Created at pci.277] UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_109e_350 Unique ID: +QnG.ei6eMzKDZY3 Parent ID: H0_h.Xi7km9jxxp1 SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:06.0/0000:04:06.0 SysFS BusID: 0000:04:06.0 Hardware Class: tv card Model: "Brooktree Bt848 Video Capture" Vendor: pci 0x109e "Brooktree Corporation" Device: pci 0x0350 "Bt848 Video Capture" Revision: 0x12 Driver: "bttv" Memory Range: 0xbfeff000-0xbfefffff (rw,prefetchable) IRQ: 7 (no events) Module Alias: "pci:v0000109Ed00000350sv00000000sd00000000bc04sc00i00" Driver Info #0: Driver Status: bttv is active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe bttv" Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Attached to: #6 (PCI bridge) I didn´t configure the default "bt848 video capture" device in YaST but added a "Miro PCTV pro" device (the card isn´t detected correctly). There´s no /dev/vbi* created until after a restart.
Created attachment 51634 [details] YaST2 logs
My guess it that there may be problem related to loading the module, I will check the logs.
