Re: [opensuse] openSUSE 11 and MythTV probs



I suspect you are using the mythtv packages I am building for packman.

Probably :-)


You already mentioned, that you are using a Hauppage DVB-T Nova-T USB stick. I
need some additional information. What's your graphics card and which driver
are using for it? Are you using compositing (Compiz or KDE4).

The graphics card is an ATI Radion x1200 and I'm using the binary ATI
drivers (8.493) from the openSUSE repository. Compiz is disabled. I
am currently using Gnome with the openSUSE 11 install (the basic Gnome
that comes with 11.0, and then updated from the openSUSE
repositories). I also had the same vertical hold problem with
KDE3.5.9 under openSUSE 10.3. I haven't tried KDE3.5.9 yet with 11.0
and MythTV... although I might soon.. Gnome is irritating the %$#$ out
of me. I expect to have the same issues (vertical hold probs, and
segfaults on exiting the Watch TV part of MythTV).

To get the Nova-T USB stick working, I downloaded the v4l source and
did a make, make install... copied the firmware into /lib/firmware.
This is how I've always had to config this DVB-T USB stick. I used
the same v4l source on the other test installs.

Kernel is 2.6.25.9-0.2-pae.
