Hey guys- I'm having the same problem. I don't think it's the
motherboard. It's an Intel board in a Dell Dimension 4550, BIOS rev.
A06. cat /proc/interrupts:
CPU0
0: 3291340 XT-PIC timer
1: 2287 XT-PIC keyboard
2: 0 XT-PIC cascade
3: 0 XT-PIC ivtv: iTVC15/16 mpg2 encoder chip
8: 2 XT-PIC rtc
11: 290382 XT-PIC ide2, eth0, Ensoniq AudioPCI, nvidia
12: 108636 XT-PIC PS/2 Mouse
14: 16034 XT-PIC ide0
15: 38 XT-PIC ide1
NMI: 0
ERR: 0
This is my /etc/modules.d/ivtv: (Gentoo)
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
options ivtv debug=0
options tuner type=2
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115 tuner
add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c
Spewing at syslog is a known issue in the FAQ, but i have debug=0, so
apparently it's not respecting that?
Some things during boot and in dmesg that make me wonder are:
- where it says "PCI: Sharing IRQ 3 with 00:1f.3". this doesn't jive
with /proc/interrupts
- the fact that i don't know if my tuner is really type=2 or not
- i'm using the bttv 0.7.107 that comes with 2.4.22 and not 0.9.11
that's patched for i2c v 2.8.0 (i'm using 2.8.1 to get lirc 0.70pre2 to
recognize the hauppage IR)
- ivtv/bttv complains during boot presumable at ivtv module insertion
that the device (bttv) isn't there and that the problem may be due to
module parameters.
- "Linux video capture interface: v1.00" why not v2.00? pretty sure i
patched my kernel for v4l2...
>From dmesg:
i2c-core.o: i2c core module version 2.8.1 (20031005)

Bus mastering is good, even though it's in the bottom slot. lspci -v:
02:0c.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc: Unknown
device 0016 (rev 01)
Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 4009
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 3
Memory at e8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2
What are your versions, module options, lspci, dmesg, etc?
Thanks,
Donald Saltarelli
