I tried the patch with a vanilla 2.4.18 kernel. No luck with xawtv. So I disabled the onboard NIC, USB, secondary SCSI controller and still nothing. I had a hunch it might have something to do with the onboard video so I added a cirrus logic pci video card. Now xawtv works fine. This includes 2.4.18 with your patch, redhat 2.4.18-03, & 2.5.24. Although this is an acceptable solution it would be nice to use the onboard video wt bttv especially with our 1U Compaq DL360 which have identical onboard video and limited pci slots. Where should I go from here? By the way I added a second Osprey 220 and it works too. Here's my lspci with a 2.4.18-03 kernel.

The common point is the PCI host bridge. It does not seem very well supported in Linux (since there's no specs available on the net.). I manage to patch the code for assigning the IRQ and I got a picture using xawtv, however, I was unable to get a clean picture from 3 bt878 based cards at the same time. I no longer have this machine, since my company decided not to use it (cause the above problem!). You'll find a small patch along this mail. Tell us if at least your computer boot with this patch (since the IRQ code is ALWAYS executed and IRQs are assigned on ALL buses). Benoit. PS: Try to remove the network card too.

I have an identical setup (software wise) on a Compaq SP750 profession workstation and it works fine. The encoder card is ok because I have moved it into the SP750 and can see video ok. I'm seeing these errors from the ML370's /var/log/messages.
