[mythtv-users] FW: MSI/Nforce2 bug?

[Timothy Vann]

I posted this to the ivtv-devel list but I thought someone here may have
some suggestions as well.

Thanks,
Tim

live TV.  Basically, the entire system freezes hard.  The hang seems fairly
random, meaing sometimes the system will stay up for hours recording several
half-hour shows and othertimes it hangs within minutes of begining
recording.  I haven't seen anything unusual in /var/log/messages with ivtv
debug at 3.(I would send the output but I don't have it here at work).

thing that looks suspicious to me is that the PVR250 is sharing IRQ11 with
the onboard USB and IEEE1394 interfaces.  I've tried every PCI slot with no
difference, and can't seem to change it in the BIOS.
