Kernel config edit


Recommended Posts

Yeah i did realise they where firmware but i get my wordings mixed

 

I probably should have realised you'd realised :)

 

I've made a couple of dvb cards work and both were annoying. IIRC, some modules the cards needed were loaded but 1 or 2 other modules always got missed so they had to be loaded by force by putting their names in /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.preload. Not much help but perhaps something you could look into. Maybe post the output of lsmod here?

Are you completely sure you booted the right kernel?

 

I am now, ooops, silly me, i thought on reboot mandriva automagically puts new kernel at top of list, but the v4l side of it only goes as far as 2.6.31.5, from what i can make out the v4l-dvb-kernel-latest etc only patches the kernel, so it is only patching the 2.6.31.5-desktop-1mnb & not the 2.6.31.5-desktop585-1mnb or the 2.6.31.6-desktop-1mnb or 2.6.31.6-desktop585-1mnb.

 

So now with the 2.6.31.5-desktop-1mnb defaulted to boot i got my green light on, now just to suss out the scanning.

At least i know what's sort of going on, i might stand a fighting chance of getting this box working correctly.

I'm glad to be back at this stage & know how & why i couldn't on further reboots, basically me being a plank and nots reading what's in front of my eyes.
