It shows up now and then after many hours and with more experimental apic enabled I have seen complete dma control losses. (Means disk enters park position and game over ;-) It seems to be overlay framebuffer caused, since it don't happen with tvtime 0.9.7, which doesn't make use of this. Xawtv in overlay mode also still spents TV frames to pop ups and other windows persistently, when moving them over it. Zapping-0.6.6 (nice) can be forced by quick mode changes to show this also in overlay in fractions of a second. At last it crashes then in capture mode. Ended with Ctrl/c it won't mute, but after reloading the modules it is working again. Xawtv at this very point shows black in grabdisplay, changing the channel sometimes brings it back. > [snip] Yes such it looks like then, but it happens before. > > I am using the following patches (against vanilla 2.4.20, but using newer > i2c-modules) and packages: > > patch-2.4.20-kraxel.gz > v4l2-20030207.tar.gz > saa7134-20030218.tar.gz > xawtv-20030304.tar.gz > Same config, but plain 2.4.20 with kraxelpatch from Jan. 17. > Any ideas?
