[Bug 536274] New: yast2 tv-configuration with ivtv drivers completely broken
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=536274 Summary: yast2 tv-configuration with ivtv drivers completely broken Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: johanp@aditus.nu QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090730 SUSE/3.5.2-3.1 Firefox/3.5.2 The configuration setup for ivtv drives are obsolete and broken I have a WinTV PVR 350 which yast2 TV detects properly it also detects that it must load the ivtv drivers (or informs that the drivers are installed). However in the information after configuring yast2 informs that: Configured as TV card number 0 Driver ivtv Package: ivtv (Installed) Package: ivtv-firmware (Installed) Package: ivtv-kmp-default (Not Installed) There is two problems with this. 1) Package: ivtv-kmp-default does not exist. These drivers are included in the kernel by default so it will result in an error if yast2 tries to find and install this. So this should not be a dependency any more this is obsolete. 2) When yast2 tries to install ivtv-firmware (even though it is already installed) it crashes and results in all configuration are lost. Furthermore the channel scan in yast2 is also broken. However, if the ivtv drivers are installed via software configuration they are correctly installed (since they can be used by for example mythtv) so there is nothing inherent wrong with the drivers, they work as expected. This seems to only be a problem in the yast2-tv module. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a suitable TV card that uses ivtv drivers, for example Hauppage WinTV PVR 350 2. Try to configure via Yast2 Actual Results: Yast2 crashes Expected Results: TV card properly configured This TV card works fine in other distributions.

If I look at http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/suse/noarch/ there is only the old yast2-tv-2.18.2-2.32 I've also tried searching for 2.18.3 but I cannot find it. Can you provide a URL where I can get this updated package? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Even in YaST:HEAD repository it hasn't been built yet... But you can try this patch - it should fix the KMP problem, but I'm not sure if fixes the crash. If it still crashes then attach the Yast log please. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
