I have a problem where my hdpvr devices don't appear in any stock Ubuntu
release kernel since 3.8.0-17. While the USB devices are recognized, as
follows:
[ 2.613272] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=2040, idProduct=4903
[ 2.613277] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2,
SerialNumber=3
[ 2.613281] usb 1-1: Product: Hauppauge HD PVR
[ 2.613283] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: AMBA
[ 2.613285] usb 1-1: SerialNumber: 00A7E978
[ 3.385652] usb 3-4: New USB device found, idVendor=2040, idProduct=4901
[ 3.385658] usb 3-4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2,
SerialNumber=3
[ 3.385662] usb 3-4: Product: Hauppauge HD PVR
[ 3.385664] usb 3-4: Manufacturer: AMBA
[ 3.385666] usb 3-4: SerialNumber: 00A316B7
The following dmesg output does not appear in any kernel I've tried
later than 3.8.0-17:
[ 20.621896] hdpvr 1-1:1.0: firmware version 0x1e dated Mar 7 2012
08:25:15
[ 20.621899] hdpvr 1-1:1.0: untested firmware, the driver might not work.
[ 21.008772] hdpvr 1-1:1.0: device now attached to video0
[ 21.009618] hdpvr 3-4:1.0: firmware version 0x15 dated Jun 17 2010
09:26:53
[ 21.196507] hdpvr 3-4:1.0: device now attached to video1
Everything else seems to work normally.
As long as I boot with 3.8.0-17, /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 appear and
myth records normally. Boot with any later kernel (including upstream
release kernels), and the device nodes don't appear.
I realize that this isn't strictly a mythtv issue, but the largest
number of linux HD-PVR users are probably on this list, and I'm hoping
someone can suggest where to look for the problem or how to proceed.
Thanks,
Phil
